Rewrite the underlined sentence from the paragraph below:

Several teachers in my former high school demonstrated that there is no need to lock up phones to keep them from interfering with classroom learning. These teachers hangs a large piece of fabric with sewn-in pockets on the back of the classroom door. Students had to place their phones in the pockets when class began, but could retrieve them if they were needed to work on the day's lesson, and at the end of class. I think that kind of rule, which keeps cellphones accessible if needed but not a distraction, is a better solution.
