dc.description.abstractHigh school students in Colombian classrooms have been shown to lack autonomous spoken production in English (Gutierrez, 2005; Bocanegra & Ramirez, 2018). One of the causes may be the inappropriate strategies for teaching the skill (Herazo, 2012; Fuentes, 2013). The present study addressed this issue through the innovative Genre-Based pedagogy model, reading to learn (R2L). Reading to learn is an instructional approach that uses texts as a starting point of instruction. Research in R2L (Becerra et al. 2020; Herazo et. al., 2021) has shown that this approach leads students to become autonomous creators of meaning. Emerging research on R2L for spoken communication has proven that this methodology effectively develops oral interactions in L2 classrooms. This research study examined the impact of a Reading to learn model adapted to spoken communication on learners’ production of descriptive reports in a 6th-grade EFL Colombian class. The study followed a case study-mixed method design to encompass the complexity of learners’ production development. The data were collected through two spoken tasks (pretest and posttest), observations, and interviews with the students. The quantitative and qualitative analyses of the data were integrated with a joint display. Findings suggest that R2L significantly affected the learners’ spoken production of descriptive analysis and is a valuable tool for developing students’ ability to create meaning in English.spa
