Identifying Cause and Effect with Signal Words

Worksheet

Identifying Cause and Effect with Signal Words

In this nonfiction comprehension worksheet, third graders practice identifying cause and effect with signal words. After reading a short text, students will underline sentences that have a cause and effect relationship by looking for signal words, such as “since,” “so,” and “because.” As a result of this practice worksheet, students will be better able to identify cause and effect when reading nonfiction in the future!
