Our French topics are made up of 10 items (Beginner) or 20 items (Intermediate) of French (both the written text and a recording of a French person speaking the word / words) with a picture that illustrates that vocabulary. The Beginner topics are suitable for absolute beginner French learners, or pupils aged between 5 and 11. The intermediate topics are suitable for more advanced adult learners, or for secondary pupils aged between 11 and 16
Each item in a topic consists of the text (both the written French text and an audio recording of a French person speaking the word / words) with a picture that illustrates that item. The illustrations are very simply and nicely drawn so there will be no confusion as to what is being shown. The texts are available to see and hear on all product pages in this brown info sign below the main interface.
The language for each topic is carefully selected to match the language of the UK French as a second language curriculum. This means that if you are at school you should see the same language you are learning there for any particular subject. The topics, both beginner and intermediate, match with the topics available in our free online teaching French product Teach French.
Once a topic is selected at the beginning of a session at French Games it will be remembered when you move between games and other activities. So you only need to choose a topic once and can then do multiple lessons, play multiple games and take multiple tests without having to select your subject topic again.
There are currently 56 Beginner topics and 58 Intermediate topics to choose from. These range from single French words (for instance "Body - parts of the body" or "Food - fruit"), short phrases (eg. "Time - what time is it?") to whole sentences ("People - appearance", "Home - helping at home"). An example topic is given below:
Parts of the body
1 | la tête | head | |
2 | le bras | arm | |
3 | la jambe | leg | |
4 | la main | hand | |
5 | le pied | foot | |
6 | le doigt | finger | |
7 | les doigts de pieds | toes | |
8 | le ventre | stomach | |
9 | le dos | back | |
10 | la gorge | neck | |

Click on the "1. Start" arrow sign in the top navigation bar - that brings you to this topic selection page. You will see that the topics are divided up in different ways:
First select your learning level - Beginner or Intermediate - in the red sign. The materials for that level will load. Now click on any button to load the topics that fit that category.
For example, if you choose the category 'Animals' from the Beginner level you will be offered a choice of two topics: 'Animals - pets' and 'Animals - farm'. Now when you click on the name of the topic, the pictures, writing and spoken French for that topic will load. Once the topic has loaded it will be available for all activities and will not have to be downloaded again. The screenshot below shows the second screen of topics that are offered when you choose to view Word topics only.
With a topic selected you automatically proceed to the lesson for that topic but you can opt to jump straight to the French games if you are confident that revision is what you need.
