    Comment by 'ByronT' in 'Structured Play and the Emergence of Content'

    Hi Christian, thanks for the reply. I agree with you, it's a challenge that I must learn to adapt to. I'm currently trying to find out as much about devising as I can to prepare for after the Christmas break, so that I have something of a reserve of things to work on. Do you mind if I ask...

    Greetings!

    Good morning, my name's Brian/Byron and I've just found out about this forum via Willow's video's on Youtube, so I thought I'd come and join in! A bit about me: After slipping through the school system (I am mild AS) and sailing into my early 30's with a pervasive feeling of something being...
