Present continuous

Fill in the spaces with the correct form of the verb in present progressive tense.

Note: Sometimes you must double the last letter in the word before you add "ing". The rule for doubling is: when a one-syllable verb ends with consonant-vowel-consonant, the final consonant is doubled. If the verb is longer than one syllable, the final consonant is doubled only if the stress falls on the last syllable.

Exceptions: never double the letters h,w,x,y.

Example: I (run) am running now.
 Example: You / We / They (run) are running now.
 Example: He / She / It (run) is running now. Example: I (talk) am talking now.
Example: You / We / They (talk) are talking now. Example:
He / She / It (talk) is talking now.

1) I (run) _________ _________ now.

2) I (talk) _________ _________ now.

3) You (get) __________ _________ hungry now.

4) You (eat) _________ _________ now.

5) We (plan) _________ _________ the vacation now.

6) They (play) _________ _________ the game now.

7) They (stop) _________ _________ the game now.

8) He (swim) _________ __________ in the pool now.

9) He (sleep) _________ _________ in the bed now.

 10) She (shop) _________ _________ at the mall now.

11) She (eat) _________ _________ with her friends now.

Note: In this exercise, nouns (Tom, Amy, Daniel, etc.) are used in place of pronouns (I / You / We / They / He / She / It). So, it is a good idea to think about which pronoun you could use instead of each noun.


Example: I (listen) am listening to music now.
Example: You / We /they (listen) are listening to music now.
Example: He / She / It (listen) is listening to music now.

1) Jason (listen) ________ ________ to music now.

3) Erin and Jessica (make) ________ ________ a cake right now.
