This is an upper intermediate (CEFR B2, IELTS 6.0) EFL Culture class about small talk. Students learn the definition of small talk before reading sample dialogues containing key phrases for small talk. Students then brainstorm different functions for small talk e.g. to give advice, before matching a small talk phrase to its function. Students test their knowledge of each function by reading more dialogues and identifying the functions. Students complete the class with two interactive activities.
