  Case: Jiving
How do you guys deal with jiving in your class?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Jiving to me is considered insulting other studnet which does not go unoticed. I would consider any insult, jokingly or not to have to place in the classroom. I know what that most of the time it is done in good fun and means no real harm but that at times if comes out hurtful or mean-spirted is one to many times. For this reason I would have a rule posted, do not insult other students jokinly or to that effect the golden rule, to end it there. Just like any other classroom rule once is a warning and if it continues the punismnet can ramp up to removel from the room and talkning to the principal and parents. It see this as a slippery slop that I would just but a wall in front of.

Comments: I think that you provided a great solution. Addressing the situation right away is much better than just assuming it's all in "good fun". Plus, even if the students don't actually mean what they are saying and are joking it is easy for these types of jokes to be misinterpreted - especially when they indirectly attack an area that the other person is self conscious about. Also, you never know what's going on in another person's head and heart. It is good to be careful and set class boundaries to protect your students. I agree with the solution you have provided.
