Free French Summer Websites for Students and Parents

Chers etudiants et leurs parents, Dear students and parents,

Here are some free French websites that I recommend for learning and fun in French for the duration of the summer and beyond.

You may be able to change the language of the site to English to help with signing-up and directions, however, I recommend students try to navigate the sites in French for more of an immersion experience.
  • www.gulli.fr
  • www.tiji.fr
  • www.canalj.fr
  • www.www.tv5.org (We will be using the TV5 sites listed as a supplement to our curriculum) 
    • www.tivi5mondeplus.com
    • www.tv5.org/TV5Site/7-jours/
    • www.tv5.org/TV5Site/enseigner-apprendre-francais/accueil_apprendre.php
    • www.tv5.org/TV5Site/enseigner-apprendre-francais/accueil_enseigner.php
For parents with a slight grasp of French or the Latin Languages, I suggest:
  • www.bbc.co.uk/languages/french/mafrance/
  • www.bbc.co.uk/languages/
  • www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/french/
  • www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/audio/french/
  • www.tv5.org/TV5Site/enseigner-apprendre-francais/accueil_apprendre.php (premiere class)
