Day After Day,Raymond's History Teacher Lectures About the Subject Matter

Day after day,Raymond's history teacher lectures about the subject matter in a dry,unengaging manner and expects students simply to sit quietly and take notes. To make class a little more exciting for himself and the students sitting nearby,Raymond often draws cartoon faces on the tips of his fingers and performs little finger-puppet shows at his desk. Raymond's behavior in class can probably best be explained as:

A) Satisfying his need for arousal.
B) Reducing cognitive dissonance.
C) Reflecting a high need for self-worth.
D) Satisfying his need for relatedness.
