  Case: Personal Space
I volunteer at a special needs school and they are all great students. However, some of the students do not understand personal space. They will get very close when speaking to me or grab me. I don't mind it too much but was wondering if there are any solutions to this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Personal space can be often hard to understand as someone who is differently abled or in an ESE setting. There are many resources available online and even lessons available on the standards based websites such as CPALMS. However, having visual cues such as designated places to stand marked by color circles may help students begin to understand where they should be. Giving students in detail directions of what they should do and how they should do it may also be helpful.

Comments: In a special needs setting this may become difficult to understand placement such as students standing in the wrong spaces or with another student in one space.
