The problem
Thick, muck, stick: why does the k need a c in front?
Ck says /k/ and almost always appears at the end of a short-vowel word. Children write 'thik' or 'stik' because they hear one sound.
Spelling with k only
Children hear /k/ and write k. Ck at the end of short vowel words is a spelling rule they haven't learned.
Reading ck as c then k
A child reads the letters as two sounds, /k/ /k/. Ck is one sound.
Never at the start
Ck can't begin a word. It's a back-of-the-word pattern, and children try to use it at the front.
Only ck words are included, such as thick, muck and stick, so children see ck at the end of a short-vowel word again and again.
What’s inside
30 questions, one per slide.
Students type straight into the box — no printing, no cutting.

Questions
Before you buy.
When do we use ck?
Right after a short vowel at the end of a word, like duck and stick. It's a spelling pattern that children learn by seeing it often.
Is ck the same as k?
It makes the same sound, /k/. The two letters together show that the vowel before it is short.
How do I get the file?
The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PowerPoint file you can open in Google Slides.
Can I share it with my class?
Yes — one teacher can use it with their own students, this year and next. Sharing the file with other teachers needs a separate license.
Do I need Google Slides?
No. The file is a PowerPoint (.pptx). It opens in PowerPoint, and in Google Slides once you upload it to Google Drive.
