Abstraction:
1. What does cause of an event refer to?
Causes make things or events happen. They are introduced by signal words such
as because, for, and since. Causes answer the question “Why did it happen?”

2. What are the signal words for the cause of an event?
The signal words for the cause of an event are because, for, since, as a result of, as
a consequence of, and now that.

3. What does effect of an event refer to?

Effects are the results or consequences that happen after the cause. Effects answer
the question “What happened then?”

Example:
Coco is very tired so he slept early that day.

4. What are the signal words for the effect of an event?

The signal words for the effect of an event are therefore, consequently, hence, and
accordingly.

Example:

5. Where can we find the cause of an event? the effect?

Either the cause or the effect can be written first in the sentence.

Example:
The child is obese because he is only eating junk food and he is
frequently doing an exercise.
A child eats only junk food and never does anything active
therefore the child is obese.
