Think about your classroom as a system

A System is a regularly interacting or interdependent group of items forming a unified whole (Merriam-Webster). Example: digestive system, automotive system, plumbing system, etc.

For example, you might think about how your students interact, how you affect your students, and how an interruption affects the classroom system.
