This is the actvity that I do. I prepare few sentences and I cut each sentence into seperate words. Then I put each cut sentece into an enevlope and the student chooses one envelope and tries to put the sentence together. If she/he gets it right he/she gets one point or whatever reward you like. Kids really like it and start notcing the pattern for present continuous quite quickly.

One more actvity that I do, but it �s maybe better for older kids. I show them a film and stop it few times. When the film is stopped I ask what they see on the screen e.g. The boy is playing football. etc.
