SUBJECT OR TOPIC: Stepping out of your comfort zone
LESSON OVERVIEW
In this Speaking Class, students watch a video and talk about challenges, and how doing certain things makes them feel. There is also an optional vocabulary activity.
WARM-UP & DISCUSSION: In the warm-up task, students look at some pictures and choose the best definition of the phrase stepping out of your comfort zone. In the activity, students need to look at a word cloud and find adjectives that are generally positive and generally negative. They also say how they feel in certain situations using the adjectives from the word cloud. The adjectives include e.g. foolish, fulfilled, peaceful, anxious, grateful. The adjectives are useful to talk about challenges. After that, students look at some activities (go on holiday alone, do a digital detox, host a dinner party, etc.) and discuss some questions related to the comfort zone. They also talk about challenges in general. You can encourage students to use the adjectives from the word cloud while doing this task.
VIDEO & SPEAKING: In this part of the lesson, students watch the first part of the video and say what they think the woman’s job is. Then, they watch the second part and check their answer. There are also some discussion questions they need to answer. For instance, they talk about the woman’s business idea, social expectations regarding fitness, and taking on fitness challenges like the ones from the video. After that, students read about four activities (e.g. improv classes and a silent retreat) and say what a person could learn by doing them. They also need to explain why they would or wouldn’t like to try them. This activity gives them the opportunity to talk about challenges a bit more.
