Focus Area >> Biodiversity >> Teacher's Corner Teacher Tip of the Week Here’s a great way for your students to discuss the issues– in less than 30 minutes Cause and Effect Organizers A cause and effect graphic organizer provides students a template to identify what happened and why it happened. It helps students graphically organize causal relationships. These frames provide a visual reference tool to aid students’ comprehension. To find the effect, readers ask, “What happened?” To find the causes, readers ask “Why did this happen?” Oftentimes cause and effect graphic organizers represent these questions with connecting arrows to help students think about the relationship between the two events.
