Mary,

I've had success using the NIH curricula as a launch point for 
activities and discussions with middle and high school students about 
risk: http://science.education.nih.gov/customers.nsf/WebPages/CSHome

The modules are designed for a lower age level than you will work with 
but you might find some basic starting points.
Also, SEPUP curricula generally include introductory information about 
risk and risk assessment. It depends on your audience and your topic.

Good luck!
Michele
