Cause and Effect:
What was the effect of
Raúl’s strikeout?
Explain to students that a
cause is why something happens, and that
an effect is a result of that cause. Sometimes

because, so, since
, and
therefore
give clues to show cause-and-effect
relationships in a story. A story, however,
may not include these words and still have
cause-and-effect relationships.
