    Advisory Activity

    Alright, I am doing an advisory activity for one of my classes. What I want to do is take a small two person dialogue from an old English play (Romeo and Juliet, etc). Then I want groups of two to translate their own part into common day English. After that is done, They will read their parts to each other and see how close their translation skills mirrored an actually conversation.

    Its meant to be fun, but also educational. I am wondering if anyone has any ideas for plays to use and what scenes. I dont want to be generic and go with Romeo or Hamlet, but something that isn't worldly known. Any ideas are welcome...thanks!

    The Tempest is pretty good.
