Words Containing 'gue' and 'que' Presentation

In an educational presentation designed for Year 3 and 4 students, the objective is to teach children how to spell words that convey the 'g' sound with 'gue' and the 'k' sound with 'que'. This resource serves as a versatile tool for introducing and consolidating the spelling of these words, as well as revising them to ensure that learning is retained. The PowerPoint includes teacher instructions which outline various approaches to utilize the slides, catering to the different learning needs within a class. The presentation is structured to explain the spelling rules, followed by interactive activities suitable for whole class participation, pair work, or individual practice. These exercises can be carried out using whiteboards or recorded in exercise books, allowing for flexibility in teaching methods.

The PowerPoint contains a variety of content, including spelling lists that group words into categories such as 'boutique', 'catalogue', and 'rogue'. These lists are supplemented with 'Guess the word' slides that encourage engagement and recall. To deepen understanding, students are prompted to use a dictionary to check the meanings of the words and then craft sentences that correctly use them. This task not only reinforces spelling but also enhances vocabulary and comprehension. Additionally, the presentation includes challenges like writing a paragraph using the words and an anagram challenge, which adds a fun and stimulating aspect to learning. The anagram challenge, in particular, provides learners with scrambled letters that they must unscramble to identify words from the list, with the answers provided to facilitate self-correction and learning.
