Sometimes it can become hard to maintain a professional atmosphere when in the classroom as students become so excited and attached to you that every time they see you they want to hug you and talk to you and leave the lessons but being able to keep a professional attitude and tell the kids to "stay on task" or "it's not time for that right now" is a skill that you will need to acquire sometime in your teaching career. For me this concept is pretty easy. There is a time and place for everything and there will be a time for you to receive a hug from a student and to have chats with them but in the middle of a lesson or activity is certainly not the case. If the student approaches you to talk or hug in a lesson then simply saying "not is not the time. You need to watch mrs./ms./mr. _________!" is not making it a huge problem and letting the kids know in a kind way. Don't exaggerate if the child does this and don't get upset or angry if it does happen. Just simply tell them no and move on.
