French at RCA: A Head Start That Lasts a Lifetime

At Resurrection Christian Academy, French isn’t just a subject—it’s a journey that begins early and continues through Grade 8. While most public schools introduce French much later, RCA gives students a head start, nurturing a love for languages from the very beginning. Starting in Pre-JK, young learners are introduced to the language through songs, games, and stories. This playful and immersive approach helps children absorb simple words and phrases naturally, building a strong foundation for future learning.

From Pre-JK to SK, French class feels more like playtime than schoolwork. Children sing catchy tunes, count in French, and enjoy hands-on activities that spark curiosity and joy, making language learning both effective and fun. As students move into Grade 1 and beyond, the program shifts to a communicative approach, encouraging meaningful interaction in French with teachers, peers, and even students in other grades. Whether building vocabulary, reading stories, or holding simple conversations, students grow in confidence as they learn to speak, read, and write in French with ease.

We also recognize that every child learns at their own pace. For students who are new to French or need extra support, we offer alternative programs to ensure they feel comfortable and can progress confidently. Whether they’re beginning their journey or continuing it, every child at RCA is encouraged and supported as they grow in their love of language.
