Objective: to understand that a problem has a cause, an eff ect and a solution
STEP 1: Ask the pupils to work in pairs. Ask them to look at the pictures and words.
STEP 2: Read out the model short story to them.
Yesterday we played snowballs all evening and it was really fun. But it was very cold and I caught a cold. Today I am not feeling well. I cannot go to school. I should stay at home and lie in bed.
STEP 3: Ask: “What’s the problem? (cannot go to school, do not feel well). What’s the cause? (they played outside in the cold for too long) What’s the eff ect? (they don’t feel well the next day, they caught a cold) What’s the solution? (put more clothes on when you play outside, come inside when you feel cold)” Problem = cannot go to school Cause = played outside in the cold
Effect = not feeling well Solution = put more clothes on when you play outside
