Cause-Effect Chains

This worksheet breaks Montag’s journey into five cause-and-effect chains representing pivotal moments in the novel. Students identify what triggers each event and what results from it, such as meeting Clarisse, witnessing the book woman’s sacrifice, or escaping the city. This activity reinforces understanding of plot structure and character transformation. By summarizing events in complete sentences, students also practice concise, accurate writing grounded in the text.
