Nuala's Grammar Explanation: Present continuous:

We use the present continuous to talk about an activity that's happening just now, at
the moment of speaking.
Jo: I'm not wearing my uniform. I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt.
We can also use the present continuous to talk about things we're doing around now.
Jo: I'm just relaxing and enjoying the sunshine here.
She's on holiday for a week so for that time, around now, she's relaxing.
To form the present continuous, we use the present form of the verb "to be"; I am,
she is, we are, they are, followed by the present participle of the main verb, which is
the verb plus 'ing'; cooking, wearing, shopping. In informal spoken English, we use
contractions so we say; 'I'm', 'you're', 'she's' etc.
Listen again:
Jo: I'm not wearing my uniform. I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt.
I'm just relaxing and enjoying the sunshine here.
So, to recap then: when you want to talk about what's happening at the moment of
speaking or what you're doing around now, you use the present continuous. And you
form that with the present form of the verb 'to be' followed by the present participle
of the main verb.
That's all from me, good luck with your grammar challenge!
