Step-by-step solution for: The locations worksheet
Let's solve the problems step by step based on the image you provided.

We are given a map of a town with various buildings and streets labeled. We need to fill in the blanks using directional words (e.g., *next to*, *across from*, *between*, *on the corner of*, etc.).
#### Map Overview:
- Main Street runs horizontally across the top.
- Central Avenue runs horizontally across the bottom.
- First Street runs vertically on the left.
- Second Street runs vertically on the right.
Buildings:
- Top row (Main Street): Bank, Police Station, Store
- Middle row: Post Office, Drugstore, Movie Theater, Restaurant, School, Hospital
- Bottom row (Central Avenue): Train Station, Church
Now let’s analyze each question:
---
1. The Church is _____________ of Hospital.

- ✔ Answer: below or south of
> ✔️ Answer: *below* (or *south of*)
---
2. The Bank is _____________ the Police Station.
- The Bank is to the left of the Police Station on Main Street.
- They are side by side.
- ✔ Answer: next to or on the left of
> ✔️ Answer: *next to*
---
3. The Movie Theater is _____________ the Drugstore.

4. The Post office is _____________.
- This one is open-ended. We must describe its location.
- The Post Office is on Main Street, between the School and Drugstore.
- It is also on the corner of First Street and Main Street? No — it's not at a corner.
- Actually, it's between the Library (to the left) and Drugstore (to the right), but more precisely:
- On Main Street, between the School and Drugstore? Wait — no:
- From left to right: Library → Post Office → Drugstore → Movie Theater → Restaurant → School → Hospital
- But wait — looking at the layout:
- The Post Office is above the School.
- It's on Main Street, and above the School.
- Actually, the Post Office is directly above the School.
- So: The Post Office is above the School.
- Or: The Post Office is on the same block as the School, but above it.
Wait — let's re-check the layout:
Looking carefully:
- First Street runs vertically on the left.
- On First Street, from top to bottom:
- Top: Blank
- Then: LIBRARY
- Then: POST OFFICE
- Then: SCHOOL
- Then: TRAIN STATION
- So, the Post Office is above the School on First Street.
So:
✔ The Post Office is above the School.
> ✔️ Answer: *above the School*

5. The Library is _____________.
- The Library is on First Street, at the top-left corner.

- No — the Bank is on Main Street, but the Library is on the side street.
- The Library is on the left side of the map.
- It is on the corner of First Street and Main Street.
- Also, it is above the Post Office.
But since the question says "is _____________", we should give a complete description.
Best answer: on the corner of First Street and Main Street
Or: next to the Post Office — but actually, the Post Office is below it.
So: The Library is above the Post Office.
But perhaps the expected answer is on the corner of First Street and Main Street.
Alternatively, since it's the only building on that corner, maybe just say on the corner.
But best: on the corner of First Street and Main Street
