'Disobeyed,' 'ignored,' or 'disregarded'? 'In' or 'during'?

Should I say 'disobeyed,' 'ignored,' or 'disregarded,' 'in' or 'during'?

Why have you (disobeyed, ignored, disregarded) your teachers' instructions (in, during) school activities?

To disobey, ignore, or disregard has a similar meaning when dealing with children. ‘during’ is the better choice when describing ‘activities’ as they are ongoing events.
