The cause and effect can be WRITTEN in any order but....
The CAUSE of something is always what HAPPENS first
The EFFECT is the resulting outcome (or what HAPPENS second)

An author uses cause and effect as an element of story writing. Cause-and-effect relationships are used to deepen a readers understanding.

CAUSE

something that brings about an effect

Cause and effect relationships occur everyday: at play, at home, and at school. To find cause and effect relationships, we look for one event that caused another event. The CAUSE is why the event happens. The EFFECT is what happened.

CAUSE examples:

1. It snowed outside.....

2. I did not eat breakfast.....

3. Our car did not start.....

4. I ate to much cake........

EFFECT

A result or consequence of an action or cause

EFFECT EXAMPLES

1.we were forced to wear my boots.....

2. I was hungry all morning .....

3. we were late for school.....
