Read the text below. The words in bold are in the present continuous tense.



















She is watering the plants now. Logan and Sam are playing badminton.






















Nathan is running in the 400-metre
event. The sisters are baking in the bakery.




Present continuous tense is an action that is still happening at the time of speaking. It is formed
with the verb ‘to be’ + verb +ing. The words is watering, are playing, is running, and is baking are
some examples of the present continuous tense.


Common English Mistakes
