This is an advanced (CEFR C1, IELTS 7.0) EFL Speaking class about risks. Students begin by describing pictures showing people doing risky activities (gambling, investing, skydiving). Students then discuss their concept of risk and examples of risks. Target language (investments, gambling, rock-climbing, dangerous driving, crime, free-diving) is introduced in pictures. Students rank the most to least dangerous activity. After that, they discuss the risky activities they learned. Before reading an article about free-climber Alex Honnold, students look at pictures of him climbing a cliff with no ropes. Students answer questions about the text before finishing the class with an interactive agree/disagree activity.
