Looking for Activities to Make Reading the Canterbury Tales Enjoyable for ELLs and EOs

I am an English Language Instructional Coach at a high school in San Jose.  My job is to assist mainstream content teachers in making their lessons more accessible to ELLs in their classes.  My latest challenge (not the teacher, but finding just the right materials) is finding highly engaging activities to make the stories comprehensible to the ELLs.  I have found modern English versions, but I am looking for some suggestions for activities that will provide comprehensible content, language development, and access to academic language (in reading and writing).

If you have any ideas you would be willing to share, it would be much appreciated:)

Thanks.
