Using E1 Mindstorms (Original)

My FRC team recently was gifted a large educational kit containing about 15 original yellow Mindstorm bricks and all the required parts (sensors, wireless towers, chargers ect.). We'd like to be able to use these parts in the off-season with our 2 FLL teamsto teach programming, but with the new programming language so the skills are useful with the actual robot. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Also, I haven't actually been able to install the old (included) language yet, but is it similar enough that the skills transfer easily? Obviously, if we could get the new language working it'd be better, but is the old language really the same other than its looks?
