This document presents a study that examines the effectiveness of developing students' extensive reading skills to improve their writing ability. The study uses a pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test design with 34 eleventh grade students in Indonesia. Students were given a pre-test to assess their initial writing skills, then received instruction focusing on extensive reading development. After the treatment, students took a post-test to evaluate any changes in writing ability. The study aims to determine if there is a significant difference in students' writing scores before and after the extensive reading instruction. Statistical t-tests will be used to analyze the data and test the hypothesis that extensive reading can positively impact writing ability.

Teachers orient students to the goals of the program, explain the methodology, keep track of what each student reads, and guide students in getting the most out of the program. 10.
