Instructional Ideas

• Use this to analyze the cause and effect or sequence of events in a story that you are reading together, or have kids demonstrate understanding of an independent reading book by filling out the worksheet
• Brainstorm for a creative writing assignment using this page

Pros

• Provides a couple cause and effect examples using the well-known tale of Pinocchio
• Could be used with any story or tale

Cons

• Kids are asked to write the effects on top of the images of targets, but this may prove to be a bit awkward; there aren't any lines provided, and learners will have to write over the lines that make up the bullseyes
