This pack introduces words ending in -que, such as antique, cheque and unique, and -gue, such as catalogue, dialogue and rogue. These can be tricky for children to read because the letters in -que and -gue do not make the sounds children might expect when they first learn to sound out words. Children need to become familiar with these common letter patterns and learn how they are pronounced in different words.
Children will read the short story The Antique Shop, and learn what Sam thinks of abstract art. It includes lots of words ending in -que and -gue, giving children plenty of opportunity to practise reading these words in context. Read the story several times to help your child become familiar with these words and how they are pronounced.
This pack is useful for children who are learning to read words ending in -que and -gue, as well as children who need extra practice. Repeated reading will help children become more confident at recognising these letter patterns and reading the words more easily.
The story is taken from the final book in our Learn To Read With Phonics reading scheme. We have split the book into separate resources for those looking for extra help in a particular area. To purchase the complete book, click here.
