Yes, both. We made it for 7th grade Sources, Data and Research Skills, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.

Words such as because, since and as a result show that one thing caused another.
Can one cause have many effects?
