How to start teaching the present progressive
 
Hi my dear friends:

I �m here again to ask you for some ideas to teach the present progressive???

Do you have a great idea??? Or about your experience, how can I start to teach it?

The class is with secondary level (girls about 11 and twelve years old) Please can you

tell me what to do??? My principal will be the moderator in my class tomorrow.

Thanks a lot

Good luck

Harelyta

My kids love PPP (present progressive pantomime)
I hand a student a card with a verb in present progressive (say: swimming) and s/he needs to patomime it. Classmates need to say what the person is doing in the correct form, including of course the correct form of �to be �. You can give cards to a single student (s/he IS...) or to pairs or groups of students (they ARE.....) Lots of fun!
