Let's solve the task step by step.
Task:
"Colour the pictures that begin with the letter 'Qq'."
We are given several images, and we need to identify which ones start with the letter
Q (either uppercase or lowercase). Then, we would color those pictures.
---
Step 1: Look at each picture and determine what it is:
1.
Windmill – Starts with
W, not Q
✘
2.
Quilt – This looks like a patchwork quilt. Starts with
Q ✔
3.
Nest with eggs – Starts with
N, not Q
✘
4.
Person with finger on lips (shushing) – This might represent "quiet", but the image itself is not a word. However, the concept of
quiet starts with
Q. But the image is symbolic — let’s be careful.
- The word
"quiet" starts with
Q, so this could be associated with
Q. But is the picture literally something that starts with
Q? It's a person making a "shh" gesture — not an object named "Quiet". So probably
not a direct match.
✘
5.
Quail – A bird. This animal is called a
quail, which starts with
Q ✔
6.
Queen – The image shows a woman with a crown. That's a
queen, which starts with
Q ✔
7.
Question mark – This is a punctuation mark. The word
"question" starts with
Q, so this could be a good candidate
✔
8.
Quill pen – A feather pen used for writing. The word
"quill" starts with
Q ✔
9.
Kettle – Starts with
K, not Q
✘
---
Step 2: Identify which pictures start with Q:
-
Quilt ✔
-
Quail ✔
-
Queen ✔
-
Question mark ✔
-
Quill ✔
Note: Even though the question mark is a symbol, it represents the word
"question", which begins with
Q, so it's commonly included in such exercises.

Final Answer:
Colour these pictures:
1. The
quilt (top right)
2. The
quail (middle right)
3. The
queen (bottom left)
4. The
question mark (center)
5. The
quill (bottom center)
> 🟨
Do NOT colour: Windmill, nest, shushing person, kettle

Summary:
✔ Colour: Quilt, Quail, Queen, Question mark, Quill
