To solve this task, we need to use the compass rose (the N, S, E, W symbol) on the map to figure out directions.
Here’s how it works:
- North (N) is up
- South (S) is down
- East (E) is right
- West (W) is left
We’ll go sentence by sentence and find where each thing is in relation to another.

The playground is ___ of Gate 2.
