Teaching Materials: Continuous Sentences
1. Positive Sentences
Continuous
sentences (also known as the present continuous tense) describe actions that
are currently ongoing. The structure for positive sentences is:
Subject +
am/is/are + verb(-ing) + object
Examples:

2. Negative Sentences
To make a
sentence negative in the continuous form, add "not" after the
am/is/are.
Structure:
Subject +
am/is/are + not + verb(-ing) + object
Examples:
- I am not reading a book.
- She is not studying for her
exams.
- They are not playing soccer.
3. Questions
To form
questions in the continuous tense, invert the am/is/are with the subject.
Structure:
Am/Is/Are +
subject + verb(-ing) + object?
Examples:
- Am I reading a book?
- Is she studying for her exams?
- Are they playing soccer?
