  Case: Personal Space Boundaries
Students are not allowed to hug, or touch each other during the course of the school day. This students is very
touchy. He does not have clear boundaries of personal space and can be inappropriately affectionate causing multiple redirections throughout the school day. He has a history of this, and while nothing inappropriate has happened I fear issues are escalating. What steps should be taken or what strategies should be practiced?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If it is during the class or instruction, you could try making a tape boundary on the table. I have tried this for students who can't keep their personal belongings in their personal area. This may help as a visual reminder.

Comments: I like this solution because it offers an alternative to always verbally telling students what to do. Instead the visual is offered that is a reminder to what you may have already verbally said. Plus, a lot of children are visual and will respond better when this strategy is used.
