I wish I could say it's annoying, but it's really not. :)ChiTown Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240876368610100419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489135.post-20972604900170353162011-01-19T21:21:09.555-05:002011-01-19T21:21:09.555-05:00It's the best part of the job!

Sit on the floor with them, color with them. And Mr. A hit it on the head - when they see its acceptable then they'll want to give hugs..and they never stop!SassyGingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03680742893705458068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489135.post-90051904027933125672011-01-19T16:58:30.593-05:002011-01-19T16:58:30.593-05:00Crystal - It's hard to put my finger on one th...Crystal - It's hard to put my finger on one thing. I do think using the Responsive Classroom approach (www.responsiveclassroom.org) helps foster a community feeling of trust and love. I also think MOST kids want to hug and be affectionate, their just not sure if its allright. Usually there is ONE that leads the way (I got a hug at our summer open house) and when the rest see it's acceptable, they follow suit. I also offer hugs, I always ask, and they almost always accept. :)Mr. Halpernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06594681597813545284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489135.post-55442791593502229632011-01-19T16:55:02.224-05:002011-01-19T16:55:02.224-05:00You receive SO MANY hugs in your class!!!

I would love to know your secret!!!Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13342519745086449282noreply@blogger.com
