“qu” Words List

Our phonics “qu” words list helps children get confident with the qu sound — where q and u team up and almost always travel as a pair. The list includes a range of child-friendly words that make it easier to spot the pattern and blend smoothly.

It’s especially helpful for:

• Reinforcing that q is nearly always followed by u
• Practising blending with longer and more complex words
• Building reading fluency through repetition
• Strengthening sound recognition in real-word contexts

Use it for quick warm-ups, paired reading, or speedy “find the sound” challenges to keep practice focused and upbeat.

Available in both colour and black and white versions.
