Talk Time Tune-Up

Students read short conversational exchanges that contain incorrect prepositions and rewrite each dialogue using for and during correctly. Each interaction provides context clues that help students determine proper usage. By editing the conversations, learners practice producing natural dialogue while applying grammar rules. This activity strengthens students’ understanding of how time prepositions function in everyday speaking and writing, improving fluency and clarity.
