If you have time to get it and read it before the lesson, try Ezra Pound's The Chinese Written Character as a Medium for Poetry. He basically uses Chinese writing as a basis for Imagism, which was a crucial form for many Modernists, including himself, William Carlos Williams, Amy Lowell, etc.
In the 1920s & '30s, Imagism via Chinese writing was a hip way of writing. I imagine it would be interesting to the students that their language was tapped by American poets.
