📌 Note on Preposition Nuances:

- “On” vs. “Under”: “On” implies direct contact on top; “under” implies directly beneath.
- “Above” vs. “Below”: These indicate general vertical position without requiring direct contact or support.
- “In” vs. “Inside”: Both can mean enclosed within, but “inside” often emphasizes being fully contained (like the cat in the chest), while “in” is more general (flowers in a vase).

This worksheet helps early learners understand spatial relationships — an important foundational skill in language and reasoning.
