A student intentionally gives a silly answer. The teacher decides the behavior is inconsequential, asks a second student the same question, and another silly answer is given. Now the teacher should:

Calmly move to the next topic.

Calmly explain that if such actions continue there will be serious consequences.

Ask a third student. If the correct answer is given, have the two original students repeat the answer.

Call out for volunteers to see who might know the answer and then call on one of them.
