Exercise that brain!!!!
1. Why something happens is the cause!
2. What happens is the effect!
3. With a cause and effect relationship, one thing always makes the next thing happen.
4. A cause can have more than one effect, and an effect can have more than one cause. Example: Because a car was coming (cause), the guard raised her hand (effect) and blew her whistle (effect).
Ms. Lee chuckled (Effect) because Kim looked confused (Cause) and John looked just plain guilty (Cause).
5. Sometimes cause-and-effect relationships have clues words: since, so, because.
