Present Progressive Tense: Trip to the Science Museum

Explore the science museum from your desk while you learn to write in present progressive tense! Students will read through ten sentences describing a field trip to the museum. They will need to circle the present-tense action verb in each sentence, then complete the second version of that sentence by rewriting the verb in the present progressive tense. 

This worksheet is perfect for fourth and fifth graders learning about verb tenses beyond just simple past, present, and future. Students can learn that the progressive tense is indicative of something happening right now, allowing them to write with more detail and specificity, and interpret differences in verb tenses while reading.
