    I wouldnt call another teacher in, that sends the message that youre
    not in charge, as both you and the other teacher are equals.

    You can send an entire class to the office. However it would be
    easier to have an admin come to your room.

    In the pass when whole classes would re unresponsive, I just take
    out my iPhone and start video taping them. That way when parents
    or admins bring up the issue you can just show them the video, and
    say "could you teach in that environment, more importantly who
    would be learning?"
