DEFINITION:
noting a relationship between actions or events such that one or more are the result of the other or others.
The cause makes the effect happen. The effect is the result of the cause.

HOW TO:
An example of cause and effect is wind blowing apples out of a tree.
Cause = The wind blowing
Effect = The apples falling out of the tree

Everyday Use:
A cause and effect analysis is an attempt to understand why things happen as they do. Whether students recognize cause-and-effect relationships or not, they are affected by them every day. Students experience them in their own lives, see them occur in the lives of others, read about them in both narrative and expository texts, and are asked to write about them.

The cause happens first then the effect happens next

If it’s raining outside and you have to go in

Then the cause is the rain and the effect is going in
