Corrections:
The woman openS the window every morning.
The girl useS the switches every day.
The boy openS the door. . .
You DO the same as the boy. . .
Very small mistakes but I think you did very well.
When the noun/subject is singular (only speaking of 1) then be sure to add the S to the verb. ex. the boy opens, the girl uses.
If it is plural (speaking of more than one) you do not use the S on the verb. ex. the boys open, the girls use
I agree with Tomara.
Also: "is/are + verb(infinitive)" = happening right now. For example: The woman is opening the window = she's opening the window now. The man is pulling.... = he's doing it now.
Most of the time, if one describes what someone does repeatedly, one uses the conjugated verb form: She opens the window (every day). He takes the taxi to work (every day). We go to the grocery every week.
