Cause and Effect Practice
The Recycling Drive
Ethan, Harper, and Hannah helped organize a recycling drive at their community center. They put bright signs near the entrance so visitors would know where to bring paper and cans. On Saturday morning, a strong wind blew one sign down. Several visitors walked past the collection tables without noticing them. Harper taped the sign securely to a post, and visitors began locating the tables more easily. By noon, the paper bin was full, so Ethan started a second bin. Hannah noticed that some cans still needed attention before they could be sorted. She placed a rinse bucket beside the can bin and added a small note asking people to empty their cans. After that, the cans were ready for the next step in the recycling process. At the end of the drive, the team counted 18 bags of paper and cans. They felt proud because their clear signs and teamwork had helped more neighbors recycle.
