What is a cause, and what is an effect? How do causal relations connect them? 

In this interactive book, students discover the answers to these questions by observing simulated experiments and recording and interpreting data. The text is concise and accessible, with simulations carrying the weight of teaching the concepts of cause, effect, and causal relation. Questions embedded in the book probe students’ understanding of the concepts and application to real-life and laboratory situations.  

This book meets or exceeds the Next Generation Science Standards requirements for the topic of cause and effect as applied to scientific research, and it has been tested and approved by teachers and students. When students finish the book, they will have a solid understanding of the concepts of cause, effect, and causal relation.  

Cause and Effect is part of the new Headsprout® Science series. Check back for more books in physical science, life science, Earth and space science, and engineering and technology.
