Reading Passage: Finding the Park
My friend Leo invited me to his birthday party at the new community park. He sent me directions: "First, walk out of your house and turn left onto Elm Street. Walk past the big oak tree on your right. Next, you will see a small blue house. Turn right after the blue house onto Maple Avenue. Walk straight for two blocks until you reach the corner with the ice cream shop. Finally, cross the street and the park will be right in front of you! See you there!"
