- It’s Time for Cause and Consequence ( Comprehension, Writing and Critical Thinking Lesson) https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Comprehension-Writing-Activity-Its-Time-for-Cause-and-Consequence-1158319
In this activity, "It's Time for Cause and Consequence," students explore the permanent connection between Character-Conflict-Resolution. By the time that they have completed the required work,they will be more aware of how every action leads to a reaction, and how both impact the Resolution.
With this language arts lesson, students will
A. demonstrate their understanding of the elements of literature by choosing specific details to complete the activity.
B. develop their writing skills by showing instead of telling, by creating word pictures, by using concrete, specific nouns and adjectives and by choosing vivid verbs that show both action and the emotion of the person doing the action, and will
C. make connections between cause and effect by revealing characters’ choices and their consequences on themselves and others.
