I need scenarios where my students might reasonably infer what was happening, in language and theme that is fine for ten-year-olds. For example:

1) A young man arrives at his girlfriend's house, bearing a dozen red roses and a small jewelry box.

2) Sirens go off in the middle of the night; when you look out your window, you see an ambulance parked in front of the house of your elderly neighbours.

Give me more. I'm typing them onto inference cards and making a game of them for my kids.

Yeah see, I knew you'd be picky about that.

Okay for real now:

It's 5:30pm and a mother puts her apron on, walks into the kitchen and takes a pot out.

A family packs their suitcases and pick up tickets and passports.

A boy puts his dirty clothes in a bin and takes them to the laundry room.

A man eats several tins of beans and repeatedly both hears horrid sounds and smells horrid smells. (okay, sorry about that one too)
