New sound: qu says /kw/

1. Say the sound /kw/ together, the sound at the start of quack, quick and quilt. Keep it short and crisp, without an "uh" after it.
2. q almost always comes with u, and together they say /kw/.
3. Show big Qu and small qu. Trace each with a finger, then write a row of each.
4. Sort toys or pictures into two piles: z words and qu words.
