Little discussed in the educational area, the laughter has historically been separated from the school, which is why this work has target to identify how it is realized in class room.The proposal was to understand how the laughter and its social function are seen by the subjects. For this, we selected a state school in Sao Bernardo do Campo, Brazil. Teenagers who attend classes at Secondary and High School are met there. The research was directed at students who are finishing elementary school. One hundred students answered structured questionnaires consisting of profile item and open questions. The same was done with nineteen teachers from the same school, however the questions for each public suffered variations. As an analytical category, was used the concept of representation of the Theory of Social Representations, on instrumental way. The results indicate that the subject observes a hybrid concept in the composition of the object under examination in order to evaluate as harmful element in a moment, and in other, as a stimulating resource to more enjoyable classes. It was found that the students laugh at school, but it is significant to notice that it is not associated to the school context. Students reinforce that laughter in the classroom disrupts concentration, although they are aware that this finding is circumstantial. In contrast, more than 60 students stated they had learned something from the interference of laughter, with the teacher the main protagonist in those moments. Concerning the teachers, most of them said that laughter can help the student to learn something, but understand that the greatest contribution of this element in the classroom is to provide a more pleasant environment. The two disadvantages listed by teachers are that laughter in the classroom could cause a lack of attention of the student and also bullying moments between classmates. It is believed that the association of the school environment with demonstrations of seriousness justify the frequent references to its negative aspect, portrayed in this research by the subjects. More than half of the teachers analyze that laughter can serve as a pedagogical tool, but students say it depends on the teacher and the time. This research made it clear that the negative aspect of laughter prevents it to be better accepted in the classroom, so that the subjects perception on laughter starts to interfere with the relationship they establish with it in the classroom.
