First, look closely: The image is a worksheet titled "On the Playground" that requires using a map and a map key to answer eight questions about the relative positions of playground equipment. The map shows the layout with directional arrows for North, South, East, and West. The map key identifies each piece of equipment by its icon. Each question asks what is located in a specific cardinal direction from a given piece of equipment, with three multiple-choice options provided as icons. I need to determine the correct answer for each question based on the map's layout.

Next, find information: To solve this, I will analyze the map for each question one by one. I will use the map key to identify the equipment and then determine its position relative to other items based on the compass directions shown on the map. I do not need an external tool for this; the solution can be derived directly from the visual information provided in the worksheet.

Then, review the findings: After reviewing the map and applying the directional cues, I have determined the correct answer for each of the eight questions. The process involved locating the reference object in each question and then identifying which of the three options is correctly positioned north, south, east, or west of it according to the map.
