Thanks for the mention. Sorry my rugby analogy was obscure. What I meant was, how they scored the try was all unplanned. Unlike American football (with the Superbowl on tonight), which is all about set plays that last a few seconds, this was all spontaneous. But in order to be able to do that, they needed great skill. Teaching unplugged requires a lot of knowledge, so that a teacher can go with the flow and react to the circumstances.David Warrhttps://languagegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572501698854836939.post-4275851465130523342011-02-06T19:39:42.454+01:002011-02-06T19:39:42.454+01:00Sorry, Paul!
