Answer:
Mr. Thomas should kindly ask the student to not interrupt class. If it keeps happening, ask the student to stay after class. Explain to the student that making jokes is okay during break, but that he can't make jokes during class time. If it still keeps happening, a trip to the principals or after school detention may be needed.
Explanation:
Making jokes and interacting with your teachers outside of class isn't a bad thing, but those interactions can't be a detriment to your own learning or your class mates'. Either dial the interactions back to just during breaks, or receive discipline for your actions.
