What you need to know
To achieve 100 you need to recognise the present and past progressive tenses and be able to construct these verb forms.
- Progressive tenses refer to an action that is continuous (e.g. I am reading this book at the moment.)
- Progressive tenses are made of two parts: the verb to be + a verb ending in -ing. Present progressive = I am running; you are skipping; he, she or it is jumping; we or they are hopping. Past progressive = I was reading; you were writing; he, she or it was watching; we or they were looking.
