Past Progressive Tense

Year 2

This resource pack helps pupils recognise and use the past progressive tense to describe actions that were ongoing in the past. The PowerPoint explains how to form the tense using was or were plus a verb ending in ing, when to use each auxiliary verb and how it differs from the simple past tense. Step-by-step examples and correction activities help pupils avoid common mistakes. The accompanying task sheet reinforces learning with sentence completion activities, converting simple past sentences into the past progressive and writing original examples.
