A. remain in the classroom, facing the children, and speak quietly with Mr. Caulfield
B. tell the children to wait quietly at their desks while you step into the hall to talk with Mr. Caulfield
C. tell Mr. Caulfield in a loud voice that he is interrupting a lesson and that the two of you will have to talk later
D. go get the teacher next door to wait with your class while you talk to Mr. Caulfield

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is:

A. remain in the classroom, facing the children, and speak quietly with Mr. Caulfield

Explanation:

In my opinion,  this is the most appropriate option since children should not be left alone in the classroom for their safety first. On the other hand, Students need to learn about respect for other people, in these cases it is important to previously advise that they should behave appropriately and remain silent as a sign of respect towards visitors in the classroom. In the answer option that proposes about going loudly to the teacher informing that she is interrupting the class, would be a way of underestimating the teacher's authority and would be a serious disrespect for her. And the last option would result in the same way that a group of students will be left unsupervised, so it is not an acceptable option either.
