for a straw. When he’s finished, he’ll ask
you for napkin. Then he will want to look in
the mirror to make sure he doesn’t have a
milk mustache.

When he looks in the mirror, he might

notice his hair needs a trim. So he will

When he’s finished giving himself a trim,
he’ll want a broom to sweep up. He’ll start
sweeping. He might get carried away and
sweep every room in the house. He may
even end up washing the floor as well!

what he will do?

That’s right!

When he’s done, he’ll probably want to

take a nap. You will have to fix a little box
for him with a blanket and a pillow. He’ll
crawl in, make himself comfortable and
fluffy the pillow a few times.

What is his bed made off? Made of a little box.

He’ll probably ask you to read him a story.

So you’ll read him one from you books;
and he’ll ask to see the pictures. When he
looks at the pictures, he’ll get so excited

to look at it. Looking at the refrigerator will
remind him that he’s thirsty so… he’ll ask

And the chances are if he asks for a
glass of milk, he’s going to want a cookie
to go with it.

question we have awhile ago, is Mickey a Yes.

Alright, what is the result of the reason “he

wants to make sure that he doesn’t have a
milk mustache?” Mickey asked for a mirror.

Very good! The reason “he wants to make

sure that he doesn’t have a milk

“effect”. Everybody please say “effect” Effect

Let’s have another example

Now, analyze the sentence. Which part

explains why a thing happened?

hair.

everything happens for a reason, and the
reason is what we call cause. Please read

you define effect?
Effect is the result.

result. Please read the definition of the
effect. Effect is the result from the cause.

It answers the question “what happened?”

Read this example:

because he wants to make himself
comfortable before taking a nap.

What is the cause in the sentence? He wants to make himself comfortable

before taking a nap.

Very good! How about the effect? Mickey fluffed the pillow many times.

Correct! What do you think will happen

first? The cause or the effect? The cause.

Correct! Always remember that the cause

always happens first. But it is not required
to write the cause first. Just like this Mickey fluffed the pillow many times
example. Read it again. because he wants to make himself
comfortable before taking a nap.

“Mickey fluffed the pillow many times” The effect.

Is it the cause or the effect?

How about “He wants to make his self

9. Application
I will group you into 3. So all you have to
do is to count from 1,2,3. All pupils who (The pupils will count)
have the same number will combine. All
you have to do is to try reading the
phrases inside the Town Hall and
determine whether it’s a cause or effect. If
it is a cause paste it on the cause and you
will make you own effect connected to the
phrase you found. And if its an effect you
will try to construct your own cause. The
group who will finish the fastest and
correctly will be declared as winners.
