Use a comma to separate the clauses only if the sentence begins with the adverb clause.adverb clause Fragment – the adverb because marks the clause as a dependent clause.

PRACTICE - PRACTICE - Read and analyze the passage. Circle the predicates and underline the subjects in the sentences and separate the clauses. My sister and I were at my grandma's house when the phone rang. We were watching TV and eating sandwiches. It was Jan, and she wanted to talk to my sister. Jan told my sister that the new super group, the Dance Boys, was at the mall. My sister almost fainted because she's the biggest fan of the Dance Boys. When we got there, the mall was packed with Dance Boy fans. While the Dance Boys sang, Jan danced. I played games on my cell phone because I hate them. If Jan, my sister, and I go to the mall again, I'll surely walk around and shop.
