  Case: Hands To Yourself
I have a student that cannot keep his hands off of his classmates. He is always wanting to touch children's hair or touch their clothes. The other students in my class get irritated by this student constantly putting his hands on them. Any suggestions as to how to help this pre-kindergarten student keep his hands to himself?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would hold a discussion or read a book related to your topic of interest. Discuss the reasons why we need to keep our hands to ourselves and ask him how he would feel if people were constantly touching him throughout the day... When he was trying to think, or play, or concentrate.

Comments: i think the conversation risks embarrassing the boy as well as misunderstanding, he may be comfortable being touched and that is how he expresses his friendship or that he cares.

Comments: I don't think that bringing the rest of the class so boldly into the issue is the best idea, otherwise the student may feel bad
