Hello there Alice ^^

Happy Wednesday!

Thank you so much for doing your homework.

I think you were confused with the usage of For and Since.

Don\'t worry, I will be providing some notes for you.


for + period: a \"period\" is a duration of time - five minutes, two weeks, six years.  For means \"from the beginning of the period to the end of the period\".


since + point: a \"point\" is a precise moment in time - 9 o\'clock, 1st January, Monday. Since means \"from a point in the past until now\".


Have a good day.

Teacher Nina
