In Ms. Hamilton's 3rd-grade class, students explore the concept of cause and effect. They learn that a cause makes something happen while an effect describes what happens as a result. Multiple causes can lead to effects, and various signal words like "as a result," "because," and "consequently" help establish these relationships. Through engaging examples, such as weather impacts and personal experiences, students grasp essential skills that aid in their analytical thinking and comprehension. This foundational understanding will support their future learning.
