  Case: Slurs
Lately, whenever the Hispanic students in my class are participating in classroom discussions I have been hearing a certain group of kids talk about the wall that the president wants to build. I have told them several times to stop and am thinking about calling a meeting with their parents as that behavior is not tolerated.
Is this the best route or does anyone have a better solution?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Explain to the students why this behavior is unacceptable. "Because my teacher told me not to" can be a small reason why this behavior stops, but not always. I think having a parent teacher conference is a smart idea but only after said discussion is had with the students.

Comments: I agree with the "because I said so" idea sometimes as well but it is important that the students understand why what they were saying is wrong.
