1 BeYond the T-Chart CAUSE and EFFECT
Beyond the T-Chart created by Shawn E. Bailey addresses the learning needs of a diverse and active classroom environment. There are three levels of learners in any given General Education Classroom: Low Learner, Average Learner, and Gifted and Talented Learner (GT). Beyond the T-Chart is a tool to assist the Educator in clear exploration of content information. The Cause and Effect model allows the Educator to apply differentiated levels of academic learning, provide direction to multiple intelligences, while most importantly integrating observable comprehension opportunities to check for understanding. Teachers are life-long learners who continue to look for ways to improve teaching techniques. Beyond the T-Chart is a visual scaffold for Mathematics, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Art, Music, Theater Arts and Physical Education.

2 What is Cause and Effect?
Cause: An event that makes something else happen. Effect: The result of the cause. The effect happens after the cause. Here are some examples. Why is Cause and Effect Important? Consistently looking for cause and effect relationships help develop analytical and critical thinking skills like problem solving, decision making (VERY important!!) classifying, comparing and sequencing. Effective study and use of cause and effect will help kids do better in school as well as in real life because of the development of critical thinking skills. Many people find that good use of cause and effect helps to focus on reality and not fantasy land or false assumptions. It also helps to drill down to important points. Resource: organizers.html Cause Effect Leighton eats a lot of candy. Leighton has cavities at every checkup. Kathy volunteers at the homeless shelter 20 hours a week. Kathy received the “Volunteer of the Year” award! Johnathan was late getting to the airport. His seat was reassigned and he had to take a later flight. Hannyn worked every summer she was in college. Hannyn graduated with no student loans.

6 Integrated & Interactive Lessons
Language Arts/Social Studies Preassessment: The students have prior knowledge of inferences, persuasive writing, and non-fiction literature. Goal: The student will be able to discuss the cause and effect of an inventions success or failure and choose for or against.  Behavioral Objective: 1. Given information from the Klutz Book of Inventions, students will define and discuss cause and effect. (C4) 2. Using the information gathered from the discussion, students will use a Cause and Effect graphic organizer to identify, list and write important facts and details about the invention, stating for or against and why. (C6) 3. Using information from behavioral objectives 1 and 2, students will write (create) a persuasive text to support a picture of a ridiculous invention. (C5) Teacher Stuff - Verbal and written instructions. Physical model and "How to-explanation/demonstration of assignment and activities, Book -The Klutz Book of Inventions, 4 pictures of Inventions That Never Caught On, 18 folders, post-it notes, Cause and Effect Graphic Organizer hand-outs. Student Stuff - pencils, markers. Purpose: In the lesson of using a cause and effect graphic organizer, I want students to learn how to: Identify target audience, analyze persuasive text, brainstorm with table group and write a brief explanation for a new product idea. Motivator/Anticipatory Set: As an introduction to the lesson and following activities, the teacher will show a picture from the Klutz Book of Inventions (Puppy Pacifier) and read the persuasive text. The teacher will prompt a class discussion: Can you explain what must have happened for someone to invent a puppy pacifier? Are you "For" or "Against" this product? What are some of the problems of a pacifier made of bone? How many of you, have had an idea for an invention and put it into action? Show of hands. How did you persuade others that your invention was a hit? Using the Klutz Book of Brilliantly Ridiculous Inventions, we are going to learn how Cause and Effect can influence persuasive text.  Model & Explain: Phase 1: The teacher will use a visual Cause and Effect board to answer: What is cause and effect? Give examples of cause and effect., and Why is cause and effect important? (Objective #1) Phase 2: Given the Klutz Book of Inventions, the students will choose an invention, read the persuasive text, fill in the Cause and Effect graphic organizer and state for or against the invention and why. The students will work independently and present their choice of invention, cause and effect of the inventions success or failure and why. The teacher will walk around the room to assist with questions as needed. (Objective #2) Phase 3: The students will be given a picture of an invention. The students will work in table groups, to write a persuasive text to sell the invention. The class will act as an audience, and respond for or against the product and state why. The teacher will then present a photo of the products success. (Objective #3) Closure: Language Arts/Social Studies/Science Bullying Intervention Curriculum Content Objective (aligned w/State Standards: Social Studies -   Language Objective (aligned w/ELPS): Vocabulary: Safe, Healthy, Resemble, Patterns, Characteristics, Habits, Offspring, Inherited, Generation, Traits, Roots, Branches Texts, References, Materials, Visuals, ETC.: Bully, bully Packet, Technology (computer/projector/screen), Pencils, Journals, Video Plants , animals , insects and People have roots/traits/habits-inherited from generations prior. Activate Prior Knowledge: K-W-L What do you know about bullying and bullies? What do you want to know about bullying and bullies? What did you learn about bullying and bullies? *Unlike the diverse variety of plants, animals, insects and bugs, that cannot change their habits and patterns of behavior….people can! * The Law of the Picture/Reproduction states, "It takes one to grow one". If bullying begets bullying, then bullies can change. The traits and habits are permanent. Review for Understanding: BeYond the T-Chart: Cause and Effect: Build Vocabulary & Concept Knowledge: Bully, bully Packet: It Takes One To Grow One Comparing plant, animal and insect life to human life. Check for Understanding: Oral responses, Table discussions and Walking around the room observing interactions and conversations. Reviewing Cause and Effect Responses and Venn diagram. Structure Conversation and Writing: Journal Response Prompt: Giving up bullying… 1. What have you tried? 2. How did it work for you? 3. What is it that you want? Assess for Mastery: Return to K-W-L and Bullying Packet, Cause and Effect Response and Venn Diagram for a class reflective discussion. BeYond the T-Chart BeYond the T-Chart (Bailey, 2011)
