Use For and Since

Worksheet description:
Objective Explanation:
The "For VS Since" worksheet aims to reinforce students' understanding of the Present Perfect Tense when using "for" and "since" in English language. By practicing with sentences related to duration of time or specific points in time, students will enhance their ability to accurately use these two prepositions with the correct context.

Content Overview:
The main content of this worksheet revolves around sentences that require the use of "for" or "since" to describe the duration of an action or a specific point in time. Students will encounter sentences that range from individual actions to relationships, providing a varied set of contexts to master the application of "for" and "since" in the Present Perfect Tense.

Language and Educational Level Context:
Tailored for students at an intermediate level of English language proficiency, this worksheet offers an opportunity to deepen their understanding of grammatical nuances. By focusing on the specific usage of "for" and "since" within the Present Perfect Tense, it provides targeted practice for students to refine their language skills effectively.

Subject Relevance:
This worksheet directly relates to the English language curriculum by addressing a specific aspect of grammar - the use of "for" and "since" in the context of the Present Perfect Tense. Such exercises are crucial in building a strong foundation in English grammar and enhancing students' ability to construct grammatically correct and contextually appropriate sentences.

Instructions:
The instruction text, "USE 'FOR' OR 'SINCE'", sets the tone for the worksheet by guiding students on how to approach each sentence. For example, in sentence 1, "Mr. Johnson has worked for this company", students are prompted to understand that the duration of Mr. Johnson's work at the company requires the preposition "for" to indicate how long he has been working there.

Similarly, in sentence 5, "I haven't seen my uncle, Thomas since last weekend", the inclusion of "since" highlights a specific point in time when the action of seeing the uncle ceased. By following the instruction to select between "for" and "since", students gain practical experience in discerning between the two prepositions based on the nuances of time expressions in English grammar.
