Word order: Place before time

Examples: go to work, return home, live in the country

The place follows the verb and its object, if the verb has one.

Examples: eat something at home, draw something on a piece of paper, etc..

With few exceptions, time comes after place.

Examples: 

Florian eats cereal sprouts in front of this computer every morning.

She arrived at the station too late.

Put the words in the sentences below in the correct order! Good luck!
