1 - Present simple vs Present continuous

Hi everyone. In order to give you more chances to practise what we do everyday in class, I've decided to post useful activities on this blog so you can do them yourselves online or after printing them.

PRESENT SIMPLE vs PRESENT CONTINUOUS (or PROGRESSIVE, as the Americans say).

There are many websites to practise the difference between what we DO EVERYDAY and what WE ARE DOING NOW. Here are some of the most useful for you (in my opinion). Enjoy!
