She's drinking herbal tea. And she's watching TV at home." as she hangs the other pictures on the board.

By eliciting, she shows Simple Present Tense on the timeline. She elicits and highlights the sentence structure and time expressions. Then she moves on to the sentences with Present Continuous Tense and asks "Is she at work today? (No), Why isn't she working? (Because she's ill)". T writes one of the sentences related to pictures on the board and draws the timeline. She elicits and puts Present Continuous Tense on the timeline.
