抄録

The author has worked as an English teacher at a junior high school, high school, and university for more than 30 years. Ten years after beginning work as an English teacher, his main focus in teaching and research has been 4-skill-integrated teaching methods centering on oral reading. In this paper, he poses the question : Is teaching through oral reading heading in a desirable direction? According to the Benesse Corporation (2015), oral reading is the most-used activity for both junior high school and senior high school teachers. However, following the oral readings, output activities such as summary making, speeches, and discussions are not conducted. The author would like to review what he has done to develop a methodology of sequencing oral reading with output activities. The author will report what has been achieved and not achieved in his own teaching through oral reading.
