B1 Spanish worksheet on por vs para: purpose, cause, deadlines, exchange, duration and fixed expressions, in statements, negatives and questions.
Start with Exercise 2 as a whole-class discussion so learners name each use before doing the gap-fills. A typical mistake is using para after gracias, or por instead of para to express purpose before an infinitive (estudio por aprobar). Also contrast ¿Por qué? (reason) with ¿Para qué? (purpose). As a follow-up, ask pairs to write five true sentences about their plans using para and five about past events using por.
