Prep Senior Learns about Personal Space

What is Personal Space?

Personal space is the amount of space people need to have between themselves so that they feel comfortable.Everybody wants to feel comfortable. When people feel comfortable with the amount of space between you and them, that is known as good personal space. With respect to personal space students are taught to think about:



  • How well you know the other person
  • What is happening at the moment
  • Does the other person seem comfortable?
Children are encouraged to envision an invisible hula-hoop as an imaginary bubble of space around them and that no one should enter into your personal space unless you have given them permission and if you ever do feel uncomfortable with someone in your personal space you should talk to an adult your trust right away. The amount of space needed to feel comfortable can change from person to person and from activity to activity. Good personal space changes depending on who you are, who you are with, and what you are doing.
