in the park
in the school (specifically inside the building)
in the car
in your house
in the living room, in the bedroom, in the kitchen
in bed (covered with sheets or blankets, ready to sleep but possibly awake)
in class = studying right now
in the hospital = sick or injured right now

on
on the table
on the train (because you can walk around)
on a bike (because you sit on the top)
on the bed (above the blankets, maybe sitting instead of lying down)
on the (first, eighth) floor

at

at the post office, at the bank, at the library (can include outside but near this place)
at the table (ready to eat), at the computer (doing something online), at the door (waiting)

the blanket is on the rack

carpet is part of the house, a rug is like furniture

there are five drawers in the dresser

on your window you can have a shade, blinds, or curtains

night table = night stand = bedside table

some people have a mattress pad between the mattress and the bottom sheet
