I'm so excited to join Rachel over at The Classroom Game Nook and over 40 bloggers for a fun Trick or Treat Blog Hop!!!! We will be sharing lots of tricks with you along with lots of freebies. So keep on reading and then hop on over to the next blog! This blog hop will run from October 24th until November 1st.
My trick is all about Cause and Effect. I don't know about you but I think it is a hard concept to teach. I have found it easier to teach by making it hands on. I make cause and effect cards for my kiddos to sort. They work in groups sorting the cards and then they put an arrow in the middle to show how the cause leads to the effect. I copy the causes on colored card stock and I put the effects on a different colored card stock. When they need more of a challenge I will copy them on the same colored paper.
Now it's time for a freebie!!
I also have a Cause and Effect Fire Safety activity. It's a great way to review fire safety while teaching cause and effect.

I have a form I use for cause and effect in all classes. I always have cause be one shape and effects (depending on short or long term) other shapes. Gives a quick visual to all cause/effect uses.
