   When I was choosing reading materials, I concerned about the concept of extensive reading. In EFL context, especially in Korea English reading class, most of the students can't have many chances to read as many as possible they want. Therefore, I want show many and diverse reading materials to students. However, I can't disregard or skip students' textbook. I think choosing reading materials which are closely related with students' textbook is good for adding authenticity and intimacy. Also, it is quite good for their English studying. Because of these purposes, my reading materials are chosen by chapter-based. I chose all reading materials related with each chapter in the textbook. In other sides, each chapter has specific topic, so, I can say that it is topic-based. I want to introduce or show many other interesting information about that chapter. My reading materials are focused on the information or supplement, but, students can read them with fun and interest.

I chose 5 chapters in the textbook and I post them with 4 reading materials for each.

Also, I marked the topic of these chapters, so you can easily identify what chapter is and what topic of this chapter is.
