Step-by-step solution for: English prepositions worksheets | Grammar printables for kids
It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet that involves understanding positional words (prepositions) in relation to images. Let's solve the problem step by step.
---
You are given a set of images labeled A, B, C, D on the left side, and a list of prepositional phrases:
- in front of
- between
- under
- in
- on
- next to
- over
- behind
Your goal is to match the correct picture (A, B, C, or D) with the correct positional word based on where the duck is located relative to the box or cat.
There’s also a section at the bottom with answer choices labeled J, L, N, G — these seem to be possible answers for matching the correct image to the correct preposition.
Let’s analyze each image:
---
#### Image A:
- A box with a lid open.
- A small animal (possibly a cat) is inside the box.
- The duck is not shown here.
- But this image shows something in the box → "in"
#### Image B:
- A box with a cat on top of it.
- Duck is not present.
- So this shows “on” — the cat is on the box.
#### Image C:
- A box with a duck in front of it.
- The duck is facing the box, positioned directly in front.
- So this matches "in front of"
#### Image D:
- A cat is sitting next to a box.
- Duck is not visible.
- This shows “next to”
Wait — but there’s a duck drawn beside the main instruction sheet, so likely the duck is the subject being positioned.
Let’s re-evaluate with the duck as the focus.
Looking more carefully:
The duck is shown outside the main rectangle, and we're supposed to determine where the duck is in relation to the box or cat in each image.
But actually, the duck is not in any of the images A–D. Instead, the images show cats and boxes.
So perhaps the task is: Which image shows the cat in a certain position relative to the box? And then match that to the correct preposition.
Alternatively, maybe the duck is meant to be placed in a specific location, and we’re choosing which image shows the correct spatial relationship.
But looking again, the duck is drawn separately, pointing toward the list of prepositions. That suggests that the duck is the subject, and we need to determine where the duck is relative to the box or cat in one of the images.
Wait — let's look at the bottom row: There are four options labeled J, L, N, G. These appear to be answer choices corresponding to different configurations.
Let’s examine them:
---
- J: Cat sitting in front of the box.
- L: Cat on top of the box.
- N: Cat and duck both near the box; duck is between two cats?
- Wait, no — actually, N shows a cat and a duck side by side, with the duck next to the cat, and the box nearby.
- G: Box with a duck under it?
Wait — let’s clarify.
Actually, upon closer inspection:
- J: Cat in front of box → “in front of”
- L: Cat on the box → “on”
- N: Cat and duck next to each other, both near box → “next to”
- G: Duck behind the box? Or under?
No — G shows a box with a duck under it? No — the duck is behind the box? Or in front?
Wait — G shows a box, and a duck with its head poking out from behind the box — so the duck is behind the box.
Yes! So:
- G: Duck behind the box → “behind”
Now go back to the main question.
We have a list of prepositions:
- in front of
- between
- under
- in
- on
- next to
- over
- behind
And we must choose which image (A, B, C, D) corresponds to which preposition.
But now we see that images A, B, C, D are the ones with the cat and box, and the duck is separate.
Wait — maybe the duck is the object being placed in relation to the box, and we’re to pick the image that matches the description.
But the duck is not in images A-D.
Unless...
Ah! I think I misunderstood.
Let’s look again.
Actually, image C has a duck inside a box? No — wait:
Re-examining:
- A: Box with cat inside → "in"
- B: Cat on box → "on"
- C: Duck in front of box → "in front of"
- D: Cat next to box → "next to"
Yes! Now it makes sense.
So:
- A: cat in box → "in"
- B: cat on box → "on"
- C: duck in front of box → "in front of"
- D: cat next to box → "next to"
But what about the others? We have more prepositions: between, under, over, behind
But only four images: A, B, C, D.
Wait — the duck is drawn beside the list. Maybe the duck is the subject, and we are to identify where the duck is in one of the images.
But only image C has a duck.
In C, the duck is in front of the box.
So if the question is: “Where is the duck?” → Answer: in front of
Then the correct choice would be C, and the preposition is in front of.
Now, looking at the bottom row (J, L, N, G), these may be possible answer choices for a multiple-choice question.
But the original task says: “Write the letter code.”
And below the list, there’s a blank line: “______”
So likely, the task is: Choose the correct image (A, B, C, D) that matches the duck's position.
But the duck is only in image C, and it’s in front of the box.
So the correct preposition is "in front of", and the image is C.
But wait — the duck is not in image C — let's check.
Wait — image C shows a box, and a duck standing in front of it. Yes!
So:
- C: Duck is in front of the box → ✔
So the correct answer is C, and the preposition is in front of.
Now, the bottom row (J, L, N, G) might be distractors or alternative positions.
But the question is likely: “Where is the duck?” and you circle the correct preposition and write the letter code.
So:
- Circle: in front of
- Write: C
But let’s confirm all images:
- A: Cat in box → “in”
- B: Cat on box → “on”
- C: Duck in front of box → “in front of”
- D: Cat next to box → “next to”
So if the duck is the focus, only C has the duck.
Therefore, the answer is:
> C — because the duck is in front of the box.
---
- Circle: "in front of"
- Write: C
So the completed worksheet would have:
- "in front of" circled
- "C" written in the blank line.
This matches the visual evidence.
---
- The duck is in image C, positioned in front of the box.
- Therefore, the correct preposition is "in front of", and the correct letter code is C.
✔ Answer: C

- Duck is not present.
- So this shows “on” — the cat is on the box.
#### Image C:

Wait — let's look at the bottom row: There are four options labeled J, L, N, G. These appear to be answer choices corresponding to different configurations.
Let’s examine them:

Bottom Images (Answer Choices):
- J: Cat sitting in front of the box.
- L: Cat on top of the box.
- N: Cat and duck both near the box; duck is between two cats?
- Wait, no — actually, N shows a cat and a duck side by side, with the duck next to the cat, and the box nearby.
- G: Box with a duck under it?
Wait — let’s clarify.
Actually, upon closer inspection:
- J: Cat in front of box → “in front of”
- L: Cat on the box → “on”
- N: Cat and duck next to each other, both near box → “next to”

No — G shows a box with a duck under it? No — the duck is behind the box? Or in front?
Wait — G shows a box, and a duck with its head poking out from behind the box — so the duck is behind the box.
Yes! So:
- G: Duck behind the box → “behind”
Now go back to the main question.
We have a list of prepositions:
- in front of
- between
- under
- in
- on
- next to
- over
- behind
And we must choose which image (A, B, C, D) corresponds to which preposition.
But now we see that images A, B, C, D are the ones with the cat and box, and the duck is separate.
Wait — maybe the duck is the object being placed in relation to the box, and we’re to pick the image that matches the description.
But the duck is not in images A-D.
Unless...
Ah! I think I misunderstood.
Let’s look again.
Actually, image C has a duck inside a box? No — wait:
Re-examining:
- A: Box with cat inside → "in"
- B: Cat on box → "on"
- C: Duck in front of box → "in front of"
- D: Cat next to box → "next to"
Yes! Now it makes sense.
So:
- A: cat in box → "in"
- B: cat on box → "on"
- C: duck in front of box → "in front of"
- D: cat next to box → "next to"
But what about the others? We have more prepositions: between, under, over, behind
But only four images: A, B, C, D.
Wait — the duck is drawn beside the list. Maybe the duck is the subject, and we are to identify where the duck is in one of the images.
But only image C has a duck.
In C, the duck is in front of the box.
So if the question is: “Where is the duck?” → Answer: in front of
Then the correct choice would be C, and the preposition is in front of.
Now, looking at the bottom row (J, L, N, G), these may be possible answer choices for a multiple-choice question.
But the original task says: “Write the letter code.”
And below the list, there’s a blank line: “______”
So likely, the task is: Choose the correct image (A, B, C, D) that matches the duck's position.
But the duck is only in image C, and it’s in front of the box.
So the correct preposition is "in front of", and the image is C.
But wait — the duck is not in image C — let's check.
Wait — image C shows a box, and a duck standing in front of it. Yes!
So:
- C: Duck is in front of the box → ✔
So the correct answer is C, and the preposition is in front of.
Now, the bottom row (J, L, N, G) might be distractors or alternative positions.
But the question is likely: “Where is the duck?” and you circle the correct preposition and write the letter code.

- D: Cat next to box → “next to”
So if the duck is the focus, only C has the duck.
Therefore, the answer is:
> C — because the duck is in front of the box.

✔ Final Answer:
- Circle: "in front of"
- Write: C
So the completed worksheet would have:
- "in front of" circled
- "C" written in the blank line.
This matches the visual evidence.

Summary:
- The duck is in image C, positioned in front of the box.
- Therefore, the correct preposition is "in front of", and the correct letter code is C.
✔ Answer: C
