Question

where should your phone be before class starts?
your answer

Explanation:

This question is about classroom behavior norms, often related to school rules. Typically, to avoid distractions, phones should be in a designated area like a phone holder, bag, or silent and put away (e.g., in a backpack, on the desk face - down if allowed, but commonly in a place where it won't distract from learning, like a personal bag or a phone - free zone setup by the class). A common expectation is that the phone should be silenced and put away in a bag, pocket, or a designated phone - storage area before class starts, or at least be on silent and not in use, placed on the desk face - down or in a non - distracting location.
