Let’s go through each picture one by one and match it with the correct phrase from the list.

We have 16 pictures and these phrases to choose from:

- DO YOUR HOMEWORK
- BE QUIET!
- KNOCK ON THE DOOR
- STOP CHATTING!
- TAKE OUT YOUR BOOK / NOTEBOOK
- LET’S PLAY A GAME
- STAND UP
- GO TO THE PRINCIPAL’S OFFICE
- DON’T EAT!
- KEEP THE PLACE CLEAN
- GO TO THE BOARD
- KEEP YOUR MOBILE IN YOUR SCHOOLBAG
- DON’T CHEAT!
- SIT DOWN
- OPEN / CLOSE YOUR NOTEBOOK
- RAISE YOUR HAND

Now, let’s look at each picture:

Picture 1: Four kids standing in a line near a door — looks like they’re waiting to knock or enter. → KNOCK ON THE DOOR

Picture 2: A person standing up straight — clearly showing “stand up”. → STAND UP

Picture 3: Someone sitting down on a chair (arrow shows downward motion). → SIT DOWN

Picture 4: Boy with finger over mouth — classic “be quiet” gesture. → BE QUIET!

Picture 5: Two girls whispering to each other — that’s chatting, so teacher says stop. → STOP CHATTING!

Picture 6: Kid pointing at blackboard — going to write or answer something. → GO TO THE BOARD

Picture 7: Hands taking out books/notebooks from bags — getting ready for class. → TAKE OUT YOUR BOOK / NOTEBOOK

Picture 8: Hands opening and closing a notebook — very clear action. → OPEN / CLOSE YOUR NOTEBOOK

Picture 9: Phone with cross-out sign → put it away; arrow points to backpack. → KEEP YOUR MOBILE IN YOUR SCHOOLBAG

Picture 10: Hand knocking on a door — same as #1 but more focused on the action. Wait — we already used “knock on the door” for #1? Let’s double-check.

Wait — actually, Picture 1 is kids lined up outside a door — maybe that’s “go to principal’s office”? But no, there’s no indication of punishment. Actually, looking again: Picture 10 is clearly *knocking* on a door — hand hitting door. So maybe Picture 1 is something else?

Hold on — let’s reassign carefully.

Actually, Picture 1: four kids standing in line — could be “line up” but that’s not an option. Maybe it’s “go to principal’s office”? Not really shown. Alternatively, perhaps it’s just “stand in line” — but not listed.

Wait — let’s check all options again.

Another idea: Picture 1 might be “do your homework”? No, they’re not doing anything.

Perhaps I made a mistake earlier.

Let me restart matching with clearer logic:

---

Picture 1: Kids standing in line — possibly waiting to see principal? Or just lining up? But none of the phrases say “line up”. Hmm.

Wait — maybe it’s “go to the principal’s office”? That’s often done in a line? Not sure.

Alternatively, maybe it’s “stop chatting” — but they don’t look like they’re talking.

Actually, let’s skip and come back.

Picture 2: Standing figure → STAND UP

Picture 3: Sitting down → SIT DOWN

Picture 4: Finger on lips → BE QUIET!

Picture 5: Whispering girls → STOP CHATTING!

Picture 6: Child at board → GO TO THE BOARD

Picture 7: Taking books out → TAKE OUT YOUR BOOK / NOTEBOOK

Picture 8: Opening/closing notebook → OPEN / CLOSE YOUR NOTEBOOK

Picture 9: Phone banned → put in bag → KEEP YOUR MOBILE IN YOUR SCHOOLBAG

Picture 10: Hand knocking on door → KNOCK ON THE DOOR

Ah! So Picture 10 is definitely “knock on the door”. Then what is Picture 1?

Picture 1: Four kids standing — maybe they are being sent to principal? The phrase “GO TO THE PRINCIPAL’S OFFICE” exists. And sometimes students go in a group? Unlikely, but possible.

Alternatively, maybe Picture 1 is “do your homework”? No.

Wait — another thought: Picture 13 shows a kid at desk with lamp and house icon — that’s likely “do your homework”.

So Picture 1 must be something else.

Pic 6: GO TO THE BOARD
Pic 7: TAKE OUT YOUR BOOK / NOTEBOOK
Pic 8: OPEN / CLOSE YOUR NOTEBOOK

2. LET’S PLAY A GAME
3. GO TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
4. DON'T EAT !
5. KEEP THE PLACE CLEAN
6. DON'T CHEAT!
7. RAISE YOUR HAND

That’s 7 — perfect.

Now assign to pics 1,11,12,13,14,15,16.

Picture 11: Kid raising hand → RAISE YOUR HAND

Picture 12: Two kids writing, one looking at other’s paper → cheating → DON’T CHEAT!

Picture 13: Kid at desk with lamp, house icon → doing homework at home → DO YOUR HOMEWORK

Picture 14: Person throwing trash in bin → KEEP THE PLACE CLEAN

Picture 15: Burger and drink with cross-out → DON’T EAT!

Picture 16: Two kids playing chess or board game → LET’S PLAY A GAME

Now only Picture 1 left, and one phrase left: GO TO THE PRINCIPAL’S OFFICE

Picture 1: Four kids standing in line — perhaps they are being sent to the principal? It’s a bit of a stretch, but it’s the only one left. Maybe in some schools, students line up to go to the office? Or perhaps it’s meant to represent that.

Alternatively, is there a better fit? All others are taken.

Perhaps Picture 1 is “go to principal’s office” — even if not perfect, it’s the last option.

Maybe I misassigned Picture 10? But Picture 10 is clearly knocking.

Another thought: Picture 1 might be “stand up” — but Picture 2 is already stand up.

No, Picture 2 is a single person standing, which is clearer for “stand up”.

Perhaps Picture 1 is “line up” but not in list.

I think we have to go with:

Picture 1: GO TO THE PRINCIPAL’S OFFICE — as the only remaining option.

But let’s confirm Picture 16: two kids playing a game — yes, “let’s play a game” fits.

Picture 15: no food symbol — “don’t eat”

Picture 14: cleaning — “keep place clean”

Picture 13: homework at home — “do your homework”

Picture 12: cheating — “don’t cheat”

Picture 11: raising hand — “raise your hand”

All good.

So Picture 1 must be “go to principal’s office” — perhaps the line represents students being escorted or waiting to go there.

It’s acceptable.

1. GO TO THE PRINCIPAL’S OFFICE
2. STAND UP
3. SIT DOWN
