Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: ing Word Family Activities
Let’s go through each word one by one and add “ing” to it.

Some words just need “ing” added at the end — like “jump” becomes “jumping”.

But some words end with a silent “e”, like “give”, “save”, “drive”, “write”, “love”. For those, we drop the “e” first, then add “ing”. So:
- give → giv + ing = giving
- save → sav + ing = saving
- drive → driv + ing = driving
- write → writ + ing = writing
- love → lov + ing = loving

One special case: “be” → when you add “ing”, it becomes “being”. (It doesn’t follow the normal rule — it’s an exception.)

Now let’s do all 14:

1. jump → jumping
2. give → giving
3. save → saving
4. read → reading
5. clean → cleaning
6. drive → driving
7. see → seeing
8. go → going
9. write → writing
10. eat → eating
11. talk → talking
12. be → being
13. help → helping
14. love → loving

Final Answer:
1. jumping
2. giving
3. saving
4. reading
5. cleaning
6. driving
7. seeing
8. going
9. writing
10. eating
11. talking
12. being
13. helping
14. loving
