Literature for ALL: Challenges (Teacher)Adapting texts

Il était une fois une petite fille de Village, la

plus jolie qu'on eût su voir ; sa mère en était

folle, et sa mère-grand plus folle encore. Cette

bonne femme lui fit faire un petit chaperon

rouge, qui lui seyait si bien, que partout on

l'appelait le Petit Chaperon rouge.

Un jour sa mère ayant cuit et fait des

galettes, lui dit :

Va voir comme se porte ta mère-grand, car on

m'a dit qu'elle était malade, porte-lui une

galette et ce petit pot de beurre. Le Petit

Chaperon rouge partit aussitôt pour aller chez

sa mère-grand, qui demeurait dans un autre

Village. En passant dans un bois elle

rencontra compère le Loup, qui eut bien

envie de la manger ; mais il n'osa, à cause de

quelques Bûcherons qui étaient dans la Forêt.

Il lui demanda où elle allait ; la pauvre enfant,

qui ne savait pas qu'il est dangereux de

s'arrêter à écouter un Loup, lui dit : Je vais

voir ma Mère-grand, et lui porter une galette

avec un petit pot de beurre que ma Mère lui

envoie.

http://clpav.fr/lecture-chaperon.htm

Había una vez una niña muy bonita. Su

madre le había hecho una capa roja y la

muchachita la llevaba tan a menudo que

todo el mundo la llamaba Caperucita Roja.

Un día, su madre le pidió que llevase unos

pasteles a su abuela que vivía al otro lado

del bosque, recomendándole que no se

entretuviese por el camino, pues cruzar el

bosque era muy peligroso, ya que siempre

andaba acechando por allí el lobo.

Caperucita Roja recogió la cesta con los

pasteles y se puso en camino. La niña tenía

que atravesar el bosque para llegar a casa

de la Abuelita, pero no le daba miedo

porque allí siempre se encontraba con

muchos amigos: los pájaros, las ardillas...

De repente vio al lobo, que era enorme,

delante de ella.

Possible difficulties/ ways to tackle them?


http://clpav.fr/lecture-chaperon.htm

https://cuentosparadormir.com/cuentos-clasicos/cuento-de-caperucita-roja


• Cultural references: geographical, historical

• Register

• Vocabulary

• Grammar

• Length/density of text

• Lack of visual clues

Literature for ALL: Challenges (Pupils)



*Establish this as a regular activity and link with what has been taught

before.

*Include Literature as a “Reading for Pleasure” slot in your SoWs-with

appropriate support. This could reinforce what has been done before

or introduce something new.

*Build on Target-Language countries cultural/ teaching traditions such

as the integration of Literature with visual and performing arts.

*Consider getting pupils to translate a section of the text and compare

with the original.

*Pupils can summarise the text in their own words or with the help of

a writing frame.

*Pupils can review the text and develop their skills in

using the language of opinion and description.

*Pupils can focus on the description of specific

characters or re-write a section as if written by them.

Literature for ALL: Possible approaches




Etude d’un personage:

description/ recount/ opinion



*Use Literature as a way to develop speaking confidence through

reading aloud and performance. (plays/poetry)

*Encourage scanning of complex texts, looking for cognates and near-

cognates as well as words that can be worked out by breaking them

down and considering their prefixes, stems, etymology and suffixes.

*Studying lexis linked to specific text types.

*Use quotes as starters http://uk.pinterest.com/icpjones/pablo-neruda/

http://uk.pinterest.com/icpjones/jacques-prevert/

*Focus on features such as rhythm, rhymes, assonances, alliterations,

metaphors, similes


More tightly structured activities include:

*Gapfills

*Matching questions to answers

*Matching titles and paragraphs

*Re-order sections of the text

Literary appreciation: Song Lyrics

Hace horas que te espero

y hace horas no te veo

hace horas que te quiero pero

hace horas que te pierdo

hace horas que te espero

y hace horas no te veo

hace horas que te quiero pero

hace horas que te pierdo

Hace horas que te pierdo

en esta esquina solo me acompaña esta

tímida neblina el sabor de tus besos

impregnados al vapor de este solitario invierno

quizás me olvidaste

o quizás la verdad tú solo me borraste

este amor es un chiste triste triste

como se siente cuando todo lo perdiste

la miel la piel y el riel

cual es el sentido cuando la vida luego es tan cruel

dame más tiempo frecuento un momento

juro que mi sombra será tan discreta como tu silencio

pero nunca me respondes …

Ana Tijoux:

Las horas
