English: When a teacher calls out everyone's names, we call that a "roll call" but what's the verb that goes with it? Would it be "take" as in, "hey, has the teacher (or Mr. Parker/Mrs. Parker) taken the roll call yet?". Thank you.

Usually we would use "to do" or "to take" a roll call.

The teacher 'takes' a call of the roll; the teacher 'calls' the roll. The teacher 'marks (off)' the roll, etc.
