Looking for French homeschool resources? Whether you’re teaching your own children at home or leading a homeschool co-op French class, finding the right resources can be challenging. If you’re teaching a small homeschool co-op of 5–10 students, you’re in the right place. My classroom-tested French resources can give you the structure you need while still allowing you to adapt lessons to your students, schedule, and goals.
I’m here to help you find the right combination of French resources for your students.
Hi! I’m Ashley, the teacher behind Mme R’s French Resources. I’ve spent years teaching French both in FSL and immersion programs and creating engaging classroom resources that are now used by thousands of French teachers. Over time, I’ve also had many homeschool families and homeschool co-op teachers begin using these same resources because they provide structure while remaining flexible enough to adapt to different schedules and teaching styles.
French Homeschool Resources for Co-ops and Families
My French resources are classroom-tested and work especially well for small homeschool co-op classes.
If you’re teaching a small homeschool co-op class of 5–10 students, you’ll find that many classroom activities translate naturally to a co-op setting. Games, speaking activities, partner work, vocabulary practice, and review lessons are all easy to use with small groups.
The biggest difference isn’t the activities—it’s deciding which resources fit your schedule and goals.
Some co-ops meet once a week, while others meet multiple times each week. Some assign independent work between classes, while others complete everything together. Because every program is different, I enjoy helping teachers build a customized collection of resources instead of recommending a one-size-fits-all curriculum.
Every family has its own schedule, goals, and learning style. Some students spend fifteen minutes a day learning French, while others complete several lessons each week. Some families want conversational French, while others are preparing students for high school or college language courses.
Because of this flexibility, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all curriculum that works for everyone. Many experienced homeschool families build a customized curriculum using a variety of resources.

Teaching French in a Homeschool Co-op?
If you’re teaching a small group homeschool co-op, I’d be happy to help you choose resources that fit your class. Rather than asking you to purchase a large bundle that includes resources you may never use, I’d much rather help you create a collection that fits your needs.
Together we can create a French homeschool resources bundle based on:
- your students’ ages
- beginner or intermediate French
- how often your class meets
- class size
- whether students complete work at home
- your goals for the school year
Teaching French Once a Week?
Many homeschool co-op French classes meet just once a week, which means you need to make every class count.
I can help you choose resources that work well for your available class time while giving students opportunities to practice vocabulary, grammar, reading, speaking, listening, and writing.
If students complete work at home between meetings, I can also help you choose resources that work well for independent practice.
Whether you’re teaching a small homeschool co-op class or your own student at home, I can recommend activities that work well for your learning environment.
Depending on your needs, I may recommend French homeschool resources that focus on:
- beginner vocabulary
- grammar foundations
- reading comprehension
- speaking activities
- listening practice
- verb conjugation
- writing activities
- review and reinforcement
- francophone culture
Tell Me About Your Class or Your Student.
Here are a few of the questions I will ask you to help us get started.
For homeschool parents:
- What grade is your student?
- Will you be teaching multiple students?
- Have they studied French before?
- How many minutes do you plan to teach each week?
- Do you speak French?
- Do you want assessments?
For co-op teachers:
- How many students are in your class?
- What ages or grade levels are they?
- How often do you meet?
- Are students completing work at home between classes?
- Will you have access to technology (projector, tablets, etc.) or are you looking mostly for printables?
- Do you want assessments?
- What are your goals for the year?
When we start choosing the best French homeschool resources for your needs, your answers help me recommend just the tools to match your students’ needs instead of simply suggesting everything in my store.
Build a Custom French Resource Bundle
You don’t need to purchase an entire French curriculum just to get the resources you need. Many homeschool families and co-op teachers appreciate having a customized bundle because it allows them to purchase only the resources they’ll actually use.
I’ll recommend a combination of resources based on your students’ age and level, how often you meet, your class size, and what you want to accomplish during the year.
After learning about your needs, I can recommend a personalized combination of activities that may include vocabulary practice, grammar lessons, reading passages, speaking activities, games, assessments, or review materials. This creates a flexible learning plan without requiring you to purchase an entire classroom curriculum.

Why families and co-op teachers choose my resources
My resources are designed to be:
- easy to print and use
- engaging for beginner and intermediate learners
- aligned with common French language topics
- appropriate for independent or parent-guided learning
- adaptable to different learning speeds
Many activities can easily be completed one-on-one, making them a natural fit for homeschooling.
Why I don’t sell a “One-Size-Fits-All” homeschool curriculum
Every homeschool family is different. Some students are learning French for travel, others need high school credit, and some simply want to explore a new language. Instead of asking you to buy a large curriculum with lessons you may never use, I’ll help you choose the resources that fit your child’s age, experience, goals, and learning style. That means you get a personalized recommendation instead of paying for materials you don’t need.

Every homeschool is different, and I believe your French homeschool resources should reflect that. Whether you’re teaching your own children or leading a homeschool co-op class, I’d love to help you find the right French resources.

French speaking activities
Homeschool and co-op students need opportunities to practice speaking French during their lessons. With a wide variety of activities to choose from, I work with homeschool teachers to choose just the right activities for each group of students.
Board games like this adjective game are really popular, because they can be played in large or small classes to work on both speaking and vocabulary review.
Boom™️ Cards for French listening comprehension
