Case: Too Touchy
I have a student who is very sweet but insists on being too touchy to everyone around him. It is most of the time just hugging and such but it is sometimes hitting or kicking (in a playful way). He is a very affectionate boy and he means well, but I know it makes some other students uncomfortable and I don't know the best way to handle it because I don't want his feelings to be hurt but he needs to respect others space.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As a substitute teacher I've come across this problem when the student always wants to hug me. At first she caught me off guard and I quickly moved to the "side hug." I then asked her to stop and try a "finger tap," where she would put up her pointer finger and I would tap hers with my pointer finger, and we would "pretend that was a hug." It seemed to work since it was the sense of showing affection that mattered to her, and that "finger tap" symbolized the same affection. |
