Article: [eal-bilingual] Romeo & Juliet in Polish

We are likely to be putting the R&J connect four
www.collaborativelearning.org/romeoandjuliet.pdf
 into Polish at our workshop on Tuesday. Shakespeare is popular in 
schools in Poland and the Baltic States. There is also an activity on 
Great Expectations on the CLP site which could be translated but it may 
not be a priority at the moment. You might also consider drawing on E. 
European literature in the spirit on multicultural education. I have 
developed material on Blaumenis - some excellent short stories -  when 
I worked with Latvian/Russian schools five years ago and have material 
in Latvian and English.

I would also be interested in hearing of appropriate KS4 support
materials for Polish students studying Romeo and Juliet and Great
Expectations.

Thanks - Ros Pegg

Subject: [eal-bilingual] Romeo & Juliet in Polish
Importance: High

I am very grateful for the 2 replies to my previous message. I
downloaded the materials and had them checked by our bi-lingual Polish
TLA. The materials are excellent, but not appropriate for KS4 as much 
of
the language is traditional literary Polish (equivalent to 
Shakespearian
language), so a lot of it is unfamiliar to contemporary Polish 
speakers.
 
Does anyone know of any sites or published resources which might be 
more
appropriate for KS4?
