This Grade 2 worksheet explores cause and effect chains with three and four step events. Students fill in nine sentences and match four causes to their effects about storms, alarms, soup, and seeds. Grade 2 readers follow how one event leads to the next, then the next, building deeper comprehension and helping them retell stories in clear order, just as CCSS RI.2.3 asks.
