The best place for the sentence "When that didn't work, he heated up some milk in the kitchen" in order to keep a logical sequence of events is after the third sentence.
To determine the best place to add the sentence, "When that didn't work, he heated up some milk in the kitchen," we need to consider the logical sequence of events in the paragraph. The paragraph describes Joachim's usual tricks to help him fall asleep. According to the paragraph, he followed two steps before finally drifting off: sitting in bed and reading for thirty minutes, and then finishing his milk twenty minutes later.
Therefore, the logical sequence would be to add the sentence after the second sentence in order to provide the additional step that Joachim took when his usual trick of reading didn't work. Therefore, the best place to add the sentence is:
"Joachim always had a hard time falling asleep, and tonight was no different. He decided to try his usual tricks to help him fall asleep. When that didn't work, he heated up some milk in the kitchen. First, he sat in bed and read for thirty minutes. Twenty minutes after he finished his milk, Joachim finally began to drift off."
