Present Continuous Tense Worksheet For Classes 4 And 5

Make sentences in the present continuous tense. We make present continuous tense forms by putting is, am or are before the -ing form of the verb.

Use ‘is’ when the subject is a singular noun (cat, boy, teacher) or singular pronoun (he, she, it).
Use ‘are’ when the subject is a plural noun (cats, girls, teachers) or plural pronoun (they, we, you).
Use ‘am’ when the subject is the first person singular pronoun I.
