Punctuating Subordinate Clauses
• If the subordinating clause comes before the independent clause, then a comma follows
Example: As Joe put ice cream into his cup, Maria talked about the paintings.
• If the subordinating clause comes after the independent clause, then no comma separates the clauses
Example: Maria talked about the paintings as Joe put ice cream into his cup.

Example
Whenever I get up,After the alarm clock has gone off,Before the sun comes up,As I stumble to the shower,I slowly get ready for my day of school. When I arrive at school,As I am talking to my friends,Before classes begin,While I do my work,I long to be back in my cozy bed.
