Call the roll?
|
|
When you name your students in a class at the beginning of a lesson, do you call the roll, take the roll call or what?
Thanks in advance

I �ve never heard "take the register," myself. I have heard take the roll call. I generally use "take attendance" which is how my teachers in public school in the States always referred to it.

Dear Yolanda
This is what CUP International Dictionary says:
If you take/call the roll, you read aloud the names of all the people on the list to make certain that they are present.
The teacher called the roll to see if any students were absent.
If someone does a roll call, they read aloud the names of all the people on the list to make certain that they are present.
Hope this helps
Hugs
