More graphic organizers: http://www.educationoasis.com/curriculum/GO/cause_effect.htm

Group Activity: Each group will be given a topic. Your task is to use one of the graphic organizers and create a cause/effect chart. At the bottom of the chart, create a space for solutions. (Due Today)

Homework:  Select ONE graphic organizer and use it to arrange your thoughts on your old/young topic in a logical order. Post it in CANVAS by Thursday. (25 pts.) Also, create a space at the bottom for you to list three possible solutions.

Work 30 more minutes in MyWritingLab. The program keeps track of your progress and reports it to me. You just need to complete the tasks as assigned. Come to class with questions on Thursday, if any.
