Abstract
We incorporated extensive reading activities in intermediate-level academic classes and conducted practical reports based on class records. Extensive reading activities include reading books with content of interest that can be read even without a dictionary, writing a reading report, discussing, and presentation. Also, we compared the number of phrases before and after performing extensive reading using nursery composition and evaluated its effect on the student's output. As a result, both class participation and number of clauses that students use within a sentence increased. Specifically, those who used fewer clauses before the extensive reading activity were inclined to use more clauses.
