Sing and Learn French

Fun Songs and Activities for Early Years and KS1 Pupils

Learn French through singing! 20 fun songs and activities for Early Years and KS1 with free downloadable tracks sung by native speakers, backing tracks, lyrics and classroom resources.

Sing and Learn French is the perfect resource for introducing young learners to the French language in a fun, engaging and classroom-ready way.

Designed for Early Years and Key Stage 1, this resource makes learning French accessible for all teachers - including non-specialists - while keeping pupils motivated, active and involved.

With 20 easy-to-learn songs, pupils develop key vocabulary, correct pronunciation and natural intonation. Singing is one of the most effective ways to embed new language, helping children remember words and phrases through rhythm, repetition and movement.

What's included:

• Fun, classroom-ready French songs covering popular primary topics, such as greetings, colours, family, clothes, food, numbers and seasonal events like Christmas.
• Songs set to familiar tunes, making them easy for pupils to join in - no musical experience required.
• Action songs, repetition songs, list songs and traditional French songs, designed to support memory, pronunciation and cultural awareness.
• Free downloadable resources including songs performed by native French speakers, instrumental backing tracks, lyrics sheets, flashcards and colouring activities - perfect for lesson planning, assemblies or independent practice.

Pupils will want to sing, clap, move and create gestures, making language learning active and inclusive. Once familiar with the songs, instrumental tracks allow children to perform their own versions or improvise, encouraging creativity and confidence.

Why teachers love it:

• Ideal for non-specialist teachers and PPA cover
• Supports the UK primary languages curriculum
• Engages children with multisensory learning (singing, movement and visual activities)
• Easy-to-use with ready-made printable resources to save planning time

Sing and Learn French is a complete, engaging and practical resource to help your pupils develop a love of French, build vocabulary and strengthen listening and speaking skills from an early age. Make French lessons lively, memorable and fun - all with ready-to-use songs and activities.
