Friends list, I need your help.

[velvetpage]

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.

A boy is sitting alone in the principal's office and looks scared.
