simplified material

I think it is one good way in order to expose students with varies kind of material, in literature class or even the language class. It is because I think there it is difficult to find a reading material that is interesting and at the same time accessible to the students in term of the level of difficulty. For example, the drama about eodipus, it is an interesting story. But with that kind of language, I don’t think students will get interested to read it. therefore the only solution for this problem is to rewrite the story in modern language or change the form, from drama to prose. Just like what we did with the story icarus, we change the language to a more modern language. Even though, it involves lots of effort, I think its worth.
