About this activity

In this exercise, students practice starting sentences with present participle (-ing) phrases to add detail, describe simultaneous actions, or set the scene. The table separates the participle phrase from the main clause so learners can focus on how the two parts combine to make a natural, fluent sentence.

Objective:

Recognize and use present participle phrases at the beginning of sentences.

Improve sentence variety and fluency in writing and speaking.

Learn to connect actions or descriptions in a single sentence.

Instructions:

Read the participle phrases in the left column and the main clauses in the right column.

Combine them to make complete sentences.

Practice saying the sentences aloud to notice the rhythm and flow of natural English.
