What is the difference between "where" and "were"?

[dxwdaw]

I get confused between "where" and "were" while writing. Can someone explain the difference with examples to help me understand better?

Where is used to ask about a place or location.
Were is the past tense of “are.”

Examples:

• Where are you going? (location)
• They were at the park yesterday. (past tense)

Where is used for places or locations — for example, "Where are you going?" Were is the past tense of 'are' — for example, "We were late to the meeting."
