Answer to Question 1

Suggested Response: Mrs. Marsh needs to use the least disruptive strategies to stop the behavior problems quickly and continue the lesson. She might make eye contact with the distracted students or approach their desks and use a gesture as a reminder that she is watching. She might embed questions in the lesson and call on one of these students to provide an answer. If possible, she should handle these minor distractions without stopping the lesson or dealing with the behavior verbally.
