Beach Trip: Cause & Effect Match

Overview:

A worksheet designed for early years students to identify and match cause and effect relationships through pictures in a short passage about a trip to the beach.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognise and understand cause and effect relationships in a narrative.
• Use visual cues (pictures) to match causes with their effects.
• Strengthen sequencing and comprehension skills by understanding how one event leads to another.

How the Activity Works:

Students read a short passage about a trip to the beach and are given a set of pictures representing different events from the story. They cut and paste the pictures into the cause and effect organiser, matching each cause with its corresponding effect. This hands-on activity helps students visually connect the events and deepen their understanding of cause and effect relationships in the story.
