I'll write one for you ... then someone here will check the ones that YOU WRITE.

Is this right?
1. a) While my sister was away, we decorated the house for her birthday party.
b)We decorated the house for her party, while she was away.
We must begin a sentence with a subordinator(since, because, if, even though, unless, whereas, while, when, although, as). Then, for the other sentence will have the subordinator in the middle.
Yes, both of those sentences are correct.
Well, one correction: There should be no comma in your second sentence above.
Thank you
You're welcome.
Feel free to post other sentences if you need them checked. Remember that commas are needed when the subordinate clause comes first in the sentence, but not when it comes after the main clause.
a. Because opinions are still divided, further discussion will be necessary.
b. Further discussion will be necessary because opinions are still divided.
