Use of present simple or present continuous

I'm an beginner English student. I found an exercise on my grammar book but I'm not sure about the kei. Please help me. Put the verb in brackets into the present simple or the present continuous: I......... to school by bus because it's too cold to walk at the moment. thank you and I'm sorry for my English

Hello, Guest I assume you have studied the uses of the present simple and the present progressive (since you're doing an excercise in which you have to choose the right tense). If you focus on the "at the moment" part, you will surely be able to make the right choice. You can then post it here and we'll tell you if you did well.

I go to school ......, is the right form. Present Continuous tense is not used for habitual actions.

It´s "I´m going". At the end of the sentence you are saying "at that moment".
