1.- Investigue todo lo concerniente a los tiempos verbales presente y pasado progresivo
(continuo). Find out about the present and past progressive (continuous) tenses.

a. Progressive present.
The present continues generally refers to situations or actions that are being corried out at
the moment and, as in Spanish, learning this tense is essential to have fluency and expression
in any conversation in English. Is a tense that describes an action that started in the past and is
still continuing in the present. The present continuous requires the present form of the verb
‘to be’ and the ‘-ing’ form of the main verb or present participle.

a.1. Affirmative (Afirmativo).


Subject + to be + verb + ing + complement.
Example: “The school teachers are prating for the winter musical.”

a.2. Negative (Negativo).


Subject + to be + not + verb + ing + complement.
Example: “The school teachers are’nt practicing for the winter musical.”

a.3. Interrogative (Interrogativo).


To be + subject + ver + ing + complement.
Example: Are the school teachers practicing for the winter musical?.

Verbs.
1.If the verb has a single syllable ending consonant+vocal+consonant like the verbs run, shop
or sit, we simply double the last consonant and add ING.
Examples: Run > Running , Shop > Shopping.
2.There are some exceptions to this rule. If the verb is of a single syllable and ends in
consonant+vocal+consonant, but the last consonant is w,x,y or z. We do not double the
consonant. Examples: Cry > Crying , Fix > Fixing .
3. When the verb ends in the vowel “e”, we simply remove the “e” and add ING. Examples:
Dance > Dancing, Take > Taking , Live > Living .

b. Progressive past.
The past progressive in often used in three circumstances. It can be linked to what was taking
place when a different action caused an interrupt; to simultaneously; or to an action of no
importance or of unknown purpose.

b.1. Affirmative.
Subject + was/were + verb + ing + complement.
Example: Michael was working yesterday.
b.2. Negative.
Subject + was/were + not + verb + ing + complement.
Example: Michael was not working yesterday.

b.3. Interrogative.
Was/were + subject + verb + ing + complement?.
Example: Was Michael working yesterday?
