Let’s go step by step.
We are looking at where things are in relation to Count Dracula — who is standing in the middle of the picture.
First, remember the compass rose:
- North (N) is up
- South (S) is down
- East (E) is right
- West (W) is left
Now let’s look at each object:
1.
Dracula’s castle → It’s on the right side of Dracula. Right = East. So the answer is
East.
2.
The spider → It’s on the left side of Dracula. Left = West. But wait — the options for “The spider is” are South and West. Since it’s to the left, that’s West. So answer is
West.
Wait — let me double-check. The spider is actually slightly above and to the left? No — looking again, the spider is clearly to the left of Dracula, not below or above. So yes, West.
But hold on — the worksheet says “In what directions of Count Dracula are these things?” So we’re measuring from Dracula’s position.
Spider: left → West
✔
3.
The bat → There’s a bat hanging from a sign above Dracula. That’s directly above him. Above = North. So answer is
North.
4.
The coffin → It’s below Dracula. Below = South. So answer is
South.
Let me verify once more:
- Castle → right → East
✔
- Spider → left → West
✔
- Bat → above → North
✔
- Coffin → below → South
✔
All match the given choices.
Final Answer:
Dracula’s castle is East
The spider is West
The bat is North
The coffin is South
