B. REVIEW Let’s have a short review regarding our

lesson the last meeting.

What was our lesson the last meeting?

Our lesson last meeting was
“Cause and Effect”.
Good! And based from our discussion,
how do you define cause?
Cause is the reason why
something happens.
Very good! How about the word
“Effect”?
Effect is the result of an action
or event.
Very good! Cause is the reason, and
effect is the result.

In front of you are some sets of photos,

Column A and Column B. All you have
to do is to match Column A and B for
its cause-effect relationship.

Are you ready?

Yes, teacher.

Good job class! It seems that we are
ready for the next lesson. Do you have
any questions regarding our previous
lesson?
 None, teacher.
C. LESSON PROPER I will ask you a question..

home during this pandemic?
We are staying at home
because we want to avoid
getting sick from COVID19.
Good! We are staying at home during a
pandemic because we avoid of getting
sick and prevent spreading COVID19.

“Cause” answers the question “why”.

the second clause, “we avoid of
getting sick and prevent
spreading COVID19”.
Good! It is the “reason” why we need
to stay at home.

How about the effect in the sentence?

The effect in the statement is

at home during a pandemic”.
Good! It is the “result” of the presence
of COVID19.

Do you understand?
Yes, teacher.
Next question:
“Why do learners need to study during
the quarantine?”
The reason is for us to learn
and move up to the next grade
level.
Very good! Your answer is exactly
correct.

Learners need to study at home during

the quarantine because they need to
learn and avoid postponement of
moving up to their next grade level.

From this statement, identify the cause.

The cause in the statement is
“they need to learn and avoid
postponement of moving up to
their next grade level”.
Very good! It is the “reason” in the
sentence why a certain action takes
place.

How about the effect?

The effect in the statement is
“Learners need to study at
 home during the quarantine”.

Very good! It is the “result” and the

action being done.

“EFFECT”.

1. The little boy cried when his

friend left him alone. (The students will raise their left
hand)
The clause is “the little boy cried”

Good! “The little boy cried” is the effect

in the sentence. It is the outcome
action in the sentence. It is the result.
(The students will raise their
How about the clause “his friend left right hand)
him alone”?

Good! “his friend left him alone” is the

cause in the sentence. It is the reason
of a certain action. Yes, teacher.
Can you follow?

Now that you can identify the cause

and effect in the sentences, let’s move
on to writing paragraphs showing cause
and effect relation.

Cause and Effect Paragraph is a

method in which the writer analyzes
the reason and the consequences or
result of an action, event or decision.

Before you write a Cause and Effect

paragraph, these are some reminders:

1. Reasons for writing

a. Solve a problem
Example: you want to show
the cause and effect of
COVID19

b. To predict an outcome
- you want to show other
possible outcomes of
COVID19

c. To understand a situation
- It is important to make
your readers understand
how serious the
COVID19 is.

d. To entertain

e. To persuade
- To convince your readers
how important to follow
the safety protocols is

2. Organize the ideas in your

paragraph through brain
storming.
Format when writing about
causes and effects:
- Topic sentence-
statement about the
effect and overview of
causes.
It is the in beginning of
the paragraph.
- Supporting sentences-
causes arranged in
chronological order.
- Conclusion –
restatement of effect,
summary of causes – call
for action.
 3. Decide on the focus of your
paragraph to achieve unity in
your work.
4. Improve coherence by limiting
the number of causes or effects
to two or three.
5. Include transition words which
focus on the purpose of the
paragraph and supporting
sentences which identify the
cause or effects.

Transition words for cause:

Because of
As
Owing to
For
Since
Due to
In that
Cause
For the reason that
So that
Unless
The main reason
When

transition words for effect:

So
For this reason
As a result
If
Consequently
Effect
Otherwise
Therefore
And thus

This is an example or Cause and Effect

Paragraph.

About 75 million people died from the

bubonic plague during the 14th century.
Half of the population of Italy fell victim
to the disease. The plague caused high
fever, swollen glands, dark bruises or
sores on the face, and spitting of
blood. Most people who got the disease
died within five days. The disease was
spread by fleas from rats. Lack of
sanitation and poor medical knowledge
account for the continuous plague
pandemics throughout the 14th century.

We will focus on the EFFECTS.

IV. GENERALIZATIO Since you can now identify the topic
N sentence, supporting sentences and
conclusion focusing effects, let’s now
try finding it while focusing on causes.

Divorce is a complex issue with more

than one cause. Lack of communication
is one of the leading causes of divorce.
You can’t have an effective relationship
if either one of you won’t discuss your
feelings, can’t talk about your mutual
or personal issues. What is more,
financial problems are a possible cause
of disagreement between couples.
Married couples could argue about their
financial responsibilities or unequal
financial status. Thus, this leads to the
end of the marriage. A third cause is
bad habits such as alcohol addiction or
gambling. Due to the fact that drug
and alcohol abuse as well as excessive
gambling is harmful to the marriage,
 couples decide to end their marriage.
To sum up, lack of communication,
financial problems and bad habits are
major causes of the divorce.

Identify the topic sentence.

The topic sentence in the
paragraph is Divorce is a
complex issue with more than
one cause.
Good! Now, identify the supporting
sentences focusing on the “cause”.
Supporting sentences:
Cause 1- Lack of
communication is one of the
leading causes of divorce.
Cause 2- What is more,
financial problems are a
possible cause of disagreement
between couples.
Cause 3 - A third cause is bad
habits such as alcohol addiction
or gambling.
Very good! All your answers are
correct. Now, identify the conclusion.
The conclusion in the paragraph
is “To sum up, lack of
communication, financial
problems and bad habits are
major causes of the divorce.”
Good! Do you understand our lesson?
Yes, teacher.
