The sentence that begins with a dependent clause is:
"When we go to school in the morning, we need to take our lunches and our backpacks."
To identify the dependent clause in a sentence, we look for a group of words that starts with a subordinating conjunction (in this case, "When") and does not express a complete thought on its own. The dependent clause relies on the rest of the sentence to make sense.
In this case, "When we go to school in the morning" is the dependent clause because it cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. The rest of the sentence, "we need to take our lunches and our backpacks," provides the additional information that completes the thought.
