How can I keep them focused?

Dear Barbara, I am a work from home dad, and my kids are now home for the summer. I have a problem keeping my children "focused" on a certain activity while I am working. If I tell them to clean thier room, as soon as I take a phone call, they act like the "cat's away" and go back to watching TV, or even fighting amongst themselves. How can I maintain order in the household if I cannot immediately correct bad behavior?
