Cause and effect is everywhere. ➡️ You forgot your coffee this morning. Now you’re running on fumes. ☕😵 Just because cause and effect is everywhere in life, doesn't mean your students will get it...or that you'll enjoy teaching it. Instead of just another worksheet, imagine students sorting and matching cause and effect pairs, actually engaging with the skill (and giving you fewer blank stares).

Others are stuck. And a few? Well, they’re playing in their desks. This is where these versatile math centers can be a game-changer. 💡 At the teacher table – Use these...
