Time Clue Mystery

Students read a paragraph containing incorrect uses of for and since and underline each mistake. After identifying the errors, they rewrite the entire passage using the correct prepositions to improve clarity and meaning. The activity requires learners to analyze context, understand time references, and apply grammar rules accurately. This strengthens both editing skills and comprehension of how time markers influence a narrative.
