Acquiring sight words will increase thereaders speed and comprehension.This book can also be used to teach children how to count to ten, learn how the numbers are spelled, and that each numberaccounts for that particular number of items. At the end of the book there is a panoramic picture of the park which allowsthe child to interact with the book by finding and counting the correct number of each object in the park.Teachers may use “A Walk In the Park” as a model to develop additional learning activities.
