Spatial Combinatorial Entailment

Combining Spatial Relations: Prepositions

In this task, the learner reads short stories describing the spatial relationships between familiar objects (e.g., “A cookie is on the plate. A glass of milk is beside the cookie.”). The learner practices identifying and combining these relationships to describe how all the objects relate to one another. For example, if the cookie is on the plate and the milk is beside the cookie, the learner may infer that the plate is under the cookie and beside the milk. This activity targets combinatorial entailment using common prepositions such as on, under, beside, in, near, and behind. The goal is to help the learner integrate multiple spatial relations to form new, untrained connections and strengthen flexible relational reasoning.
