Trees
by Joyce Kilmer
I think that I shall never see
A poem as lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

dust storms and wild fires.

(Cause)

Cause and Effect
Nothing happens without a reason or
without some kind of consequences.
When you explain why things happen and
what occurs when they do, the technique
you use is called cause and effect.
Cause and Effect
Cause is why something happened.
Effect is the result of what happened.
Because effects always have causes and
causes always lead to effects, we rarely see
one without the other.
Cause and Effect
Cause is the first thing that happens.
It makes the second thing (the effect)
happen.
The part of the sentence after the word
because is the cause.
Example:
The air gets polluted because of smokes
from the factories and vehicles.
Cause and Effect
Effect is the second thing that happens.
• The effect answers the questions:
What happened?
What was the result?
Example:
Animals face breathing problems, skin infections
and many other diseases due to air pollution.
