We are studying. I will draw a timeline. CCQs: What is the role of "we"? What comes after the subject? Verb. Does it happen in the past, present, or future? Base form verb+ing. We use the present continuous for things that are happening right now or things that are still happening. What is the question form? What is the negative form? What is the difference between (I study) and (I am studying)? In what situations do we use each of these?
