How does this sentence sound to be perfectly grammatical? My edit seems to have kept things in order by changing one to it… Which might sound better in some circumstances, but wouldn’t really be a big deal– particularly when uttered by a 5th grader?

Some might like to use adverbs. I’m not sure I’d parse those as adverbs as implying. It’s certainly a possibility, but as a native American English speaker when I think present participle derived adverbs, I tend to think of words like “interestingly”.
If both can be understood, for example, “they were crying when they left” or “he was yelling when he came” then I might instead parse it as a past progressive verb form.
