In the study, two instruments (survey questionnaires and interviews) were employed to achieve the purposes of the study. The subjects involved in this study were 100 students, coming from Nursery and Primary Department. They were invited to participate in the survey questionnaires.Besides, five teachers of English agreed to join the study to support the researcher better her research. It can be said that the course book “Lifelines” (Pre-intermediate) by Tom Hutchinson (2006) does not really meet the students’ needs. Although the speaking topics are familiar to students, there are not various types of speaking activities. Moreover, the course book does not supply enough vocabulary items and grammatical structures related tothespeaking topics.Based on the findings, thestudents prefer to have a supplement speaking material which provides them with furtherpractice invocabulary, grammar as well as speaking. Therefore, it is necessary to design a supplementary speaking material to suit students’ level. It is said that this supplementary speaking material can supply more language knowledge for the students and it can be a useful material for them to study speaking skills better
