"On the first day of school, I walked through the door,

And one little dinosaur danced on the floor.

Oh Wow! That was so cool! I saw one, blue dinosaur at school!

(Turn Page)

I walked to the classroom and looked for my chair,

And two little dinosaurs were dancing right there.

Oh Wow! That was so cool! I saw, two red dinosaurs at school!
