With English returning to the Indonesia's primary school curriculum in 2027, early exposure to English texts is essential. However, many schools, including Bopkri Gondolayu Yogyakarta Primary School, have limited access to English reading materials, restricting students’ opportunities to develop reading skills. The lack of extensive reading resources in school libraries further complicates English teachers’ efforts to integrate reading into lessons. To address this, the English Language Education and Product Design Study Programs of Universitas Kristen Duta Wacana Yogyakarta have collaborated to establish the Drop Everything and Read (DEAR) English Reading Corner at Bopkri Gondolayu’s library. This initiative provides 50 leveled readers, organized on specially designed shelves according to the seven virtues of Kurikulum Merdeka, the Freedom Curriculum. The program aims to (1) enhance students’ exposure to English texts, (2) cultivate a habit of extensive reading, and (3) assist teachers in incorporating leveled readers into English instruction.
