Fishing and Hunting Spelling

Charlotte and Kahu are preparing a spelling guide for visitors at a fishing harbour. Read each task carefully. Use New Zealand spelling, following the -ise convention, and check tricky words by looking for patterns, syllables and word parts.

Read the field note

Before sunrise, Charlotte checked the fishing equipment beside the wharf. She packed a warm jacket, a stainless-steel flask and a carefully labelled container of bait. Kahu reminded her that the weather could change quickly, so they checked the forecast before leaving. Their group planned to fish from the shore and observe wildlife from a respectful distance. They would not disturb nesting birds or leave rubbish behind. At the end of the trip, Kahu would record the catch, describe the conditions and make sure every piece of equipment was accounted for.

1.Which spelling completes the sentence? “Charlotte packed a ______ jacket in case of rain.”
  • waterproof
  • waterprof
  • woterproof
  • waterpruf
2.Add -ly to careful to make a word meaning “in a careful way”. Write the completed word.
3.This draft has three spelling mistakes: “The group checked the forcast, packed their equiptment and watched the nesting birdds.” Rewrite the sentence with all three words spelled correctly.
4.Match each harbour word to the clue that helps you remember its spelling.
  • stainless
  • equipment
  • weather
  • accounted
  • The middle vowel sequence is ui.
  • It has the doubled c in account.
  • It contains ea, as in feather.
  • It contains ai, as in rain.
5.Circle the New Zealand spelling in each pair: labelled / labeled; travelled / traveled; organise / organize.
6.Place each word into the correct group: forecast, equipment, stainless, weather, wildlife, carefully. Group A: words with ea. Group B: words with ei. Group C: words with neither ea nor ei.
7.Add the suffix -ment to equip. Write the resulting noun and use it in a short phrase about the trip.
8.Explain why adding -ly to careful makes carefully without a spelling change, and why adding -ed to account makes accounted without changing its spelling.
9.Write two sentences about the harbour trip. Include at least four of these correctly spelled words: forecast, equipment, weather, wildlife, carefully, accounted. Use correct capital letters and punctuation.
