Mr. Adams, Taylor Elementary's school counselor,  loves visiting classrooms.  One of his favorite things to do is to use picture books to convey his message and one of his favorites is "Personal Space Camp", by Julia Cook.  In this book, the character, Louis, learnes all about what "personal space" means.  In the story, Louis is sent to the principal's office and thinks he's learning about space suits, lunar landings and outer space. However, he soon finds out what personal space camp really means. 

Mr. Adams used a hula hoop to demonstrate how uncomfortable it can feel when there isn't enough personal space as well as how important it is to make sure others have theirs.  Students at Taylor get excited when Mr. Adams comes for a visit and they make sure to use their newly taught skills each day.  Thank you Mr. Adams for making Taylor a great place to be!
