It looks like you're asking for help with a worksheet titled
"Identifying Progressive Tenses", which involves identifying whether sentences use the
present progressive,
past progressive, or
future progressive tenses. However, I currently don't have access to the image you uploaded.
But I can help you solve this type of problem! Here’s how to identify and classify progressive tenses:
---
🔹 What are Progressive Tenses?
Progressive (or continuous) tenses describe actions that are
in progress at a specific time.
They follow this structure:
>
Subject + be verb (am/is/are/was/were/will be) + present participle (-ing form)

🔹 Types of Progressive Tenses
| Tense | Structure | Example |
|------|----------|--------|
|
Present Progressive | am/is/are + verb-ing | She
is reading a book now. |
|
Past Progressive | was/were + verb-ing | They
were playing soccer yesterday at 5 PM. |
|
Future Progressive | will be + verb-ing | I
will be studying at 8 PM tonight. |
