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!) I would go over the rules of the classroom daily. One of these rules would of course be to keep your hands and feet to yourself. Thinking of a fun way to review these rules, like a song or chant, may make it more tolerable and it will sink in with your students. If you continue to have a problem, seeking help from a source at school is a great idea.
