Cause and Effect
Step-by-Step Strategy
- Choose a topic that can be developed through finding a cause and its effect.
- Ask students to read the material about the topic and take notes on it.
- After students have finished reading, enter the cause on the graphic organizer and display it for the students.
- Conduct a group brainstorming session in which students identify and you list the effects. Make sure the effects students choose actually relate to the cause.
- At the end of the group discussion, ask students to write a one- or two-sentence summary of the cause and its effect or effects.
