Reading responses
Cause and Effect Anchor Chart – Reading Reference Set
Introduce cause and effect with a simple rain-and-umbrella example and words such as “because” and “as a result.” The complete reference chart makes the relationship visible, while a matching fill-in page supports guided notes. Students can then use the sentence frames to explain connected events in a text or familiar situation. Model a sentence together before asking students to choose a signal word for their own response.
