This lesson plan introduces the concept of cause and effect to students in an engaging way. The teacher reads a story called Hadley, the Helped-Along Walrus, followed by probing questions to check understanding. Students then participate in a freeze dance activity before moving on to independent practice activities where they match causes and effects from the story. The lesson concludes with a summary and an exit slip for assessment. If time permits, there's also a picture matching game for extra practice.
