"You a fat cheeseburger"

Lately my children have been mean! This is the newest phrase going on in my classroom. I have one child who is overweight and has been having issues with peers calling him names. Whenever we hear this happening we address it on the spot, but it is hard to monitor this outside of the classroom. Recently there has been a lot of problems happening in the after school program between several first grade students. I want to address the issue but I don’t know how to get the point across when in their culture it is “ok or normal” to use these disrespectful words.
