Building on easy-1, this worksheet uses a simple zoo map with five animal-area symbols such as a lion, a bird, a fish, a snack stand, and a restroom. First graders circle symbols on the map that match the legend and answer two simple questions like Where is the fish tank?
This sheet keeps the format friendly while introducing a brand-new map setting and a slightly larger legend for steady, gentle practice.
