Try to memorize them if you can. It is important to know these words because in a Scrabble game, there are only 4 U's and 2 blanks. Therefore, the chances of having a Q and a U or a blank in your rack are slim.
It is also beneficial to familiarize the words where the letter U doesn't come right after the letter Q. Take these for example:
BUQSHAs
QIVIUTs
UMIAQs
SUQs

HI!
i had boggle and scrabble and other board games. i played boggle and scrabble before when i was in the phils. i even had scrabble dictionary. i like board games.
Hi Faye, glad to know you also play boggle and scrabble. I also like board games, word games, puzzles, and other mind games. Hope you had a wonderful time here in the Phils.
I just found your blog today. I've been a Scrabble player since I was a child, but never seriously enough to memorize word-lists or anything like that.
The mention of Q-words made me smile, thinking of a game I played with my then-8-year-old niece about three years ago. She played the word QUIZ, in such a way that she somehow managed to end up with 96 points (!) (Obviously it was on a triple word score.)
She being only in 2nd grade at the time, and me with a reputation of being the family Scrabble champion from a very young age, naturally my niece was delighted, and I was half-embarrassed (that I hadn't seen that one coming) but also very proud of her. I fought my way back (no longer going easy on her!) to end the game more or less in a tie. I told her afterward that she should tell her teacher that she "likes quizzes". :-)

Outlandish Observations
Cute story! Hope your niece continues to play Scrabble. 96 points is definitely a thumbs up! I assume the Q or the Z was on the double letter score aside from the triple word score.
