Unit 4 discusses four present tenses: present simple, present continuous, present perfect, and present perfect continuous. For each tense, there are examples of the affirmative, negative and question forms.
Present simple sentences use the base form of the verb, and they are used for creating sentences about situations like habits, routines, or facts.
Present continuous sentences contain the auxiliary verb "be" and the verb+ing. They are used to talk about things such as an action in progress or developing situations.
Present perfect sentences use the "have" auxiliary verb and the past participle, often to emphasize the result or completion of actions done in the past.
Present perfect continuous sentences contain the auxiliary verb "have", the word "been", and the verb+ing. Unlike the present perfect sentences, the emphasis is on the action and not the result of the action.
Tenses are confusing, and knowing when to use which tense can be difficult. I anticipate the need to give students more time and practice with using these tenses to help them become more comfortable with using the right ones.
