Lesson overview:

Students learn the two tenses weeks apart and then merge them, so you get *I am liking this song* and *she is going to school every day* from people who can form both perfectly in isolation. This present simple vs present continuous worksheet only does the contrast.

By the end of the worksheet, students will be able to:

  • choose between the present simple and the present continuous in context
  • match a time expression to the tense it signals
  • ask both question types, do you and are you
  • correct the mistakes that come from mixing the two
