The present participle of most verbs has the form base+ing and is used in the following ways:

a. as part of the continuous form of a verb

I am working
He was singing
They have been eating

b. after verbs of movement/position in the pattern: verb + present participle

He went fishing at the pond
She lay looking up at the clouds
He came running towards us

This construction is particularly useful with the verb 'to go', as in these common expressions :

to go shopping
to go skiing
to go fishing

to go walking
to go swimming
to go running
to go dancing

c. after verbs of perception in the pattern:
verb + object + present participle

I heard someone screaming.
He saw his friend running along the road.
