Dragons love chicken tacos, beef tacos, teeny tiny tacos, and great big tacos — but they hate spicy salsa! So when a boy hosts a taco party for his dragon friends, he makes sure to serve only mild salsa. But when one of the dragons accidentally eats some spicy pepper, things turn red-hot! This silly story is a great way to introduce children to the concept of cause and effect. Students can identify the problem and its consequences, and then write about how the boy solves the problem.
This lesson is ideal for a whole-class read-aloud, but also works well in small groups. Students will enjoy working together to answer the questions and complete the activities. This article contains links to free printables, which can be used in addition to the suggested classroom activities below.
