WHAT YOU WILL GET
- Posters/Anchor Charts
- Graphic Organizer
- Cause and Effect Sort
- Worksheets
Posters
These illustrate the difference between cause and effect with examples. Includes half-page and full-page size.
Graphic Organizer Anchor Chart
This shows how cause and effect interact and how keywords can help you identify which is which.
Cause and Effect Sorting Activity
Students determine which cards are causes, which are effects, and then put them together. Some of the cards have similar "story lines" so students will have to decide which pairs make the most sense. Includes 40 cards and cause/effect heading cards.
Worksheets
Includes three worksheets plus answer keys.
- Worksheet 1 - Students match each cause with its effect and then write their own sentences to complete cause/effect pairs.
- Worksheet 2 is a cut and glue version of the anchor chart. Students must determine which statements are the causes and which are the effects and connect them with the correct transition word.
- Worksheet 3 - Students read four short paragraphs and answer a question about what is the cause or effect.
Digital Activities
Both worksheets have been prepared for digital use in Easel. They include moveable pieces and answer boxes that students can type into. These can be assigned through your online learning platform to be completed on any device. For more information on Easel Activities see this GETTING STARTED GUIDE.
HOW TO USE THIS RESOURCE
I suggest using the posters to introduce the concepts of cause and effect and then hang for student reference. The graphic organizer anchor chart is great for use during small group reading and can also be used along with the cause/effect sorting cards for extra support. Students can place the cards in the boxes on the graphic organizer to help them check their work and see if their matches make sense.
The sorting cards can be placed in centers as a simple matching task or as a concentration-style memory game. You can even pass them out to the whole class as a "find your partner" activity.
The worksheets are appropriate for practice or assessment.
