Unjumble the word

On page 29 of your book, Santoor, the letters of some words from the poem 'The Rainbow' are jumbled up. Your job is to put them back in the right order. The first is done for you: s-i-a-l becomes SAIL.

A good way to unjumble a word: think of the poem. Count the letters, then ask which word from the poem has exactly those letters.

Here are the answers. vierr is RIVER. sae is SEA. oduscl is CLOUDS. risebgd is BRIDGES. nhveea is HEAVEN. eoptvros is OVERTOPS. owb is BOW. droa is ROAD.

'Overtops' is a new word in the poem. It means rises above the top of something. The rainbow overtops the trees: it goes higher than the treetops.
