Meaning-focused input
Try finding graded readers in the library that are both the right level AND interesting. Remember, there should only be 1-2% new words (except for names). Read a lot!
Language-focussed learning
Continue studying with Quizlet. You can use the sets in our Quizlet group. But, you can also search other sets including other sets in the NAWL.
Additionally, you can make your own sets on Quizlet. Add words that you learn from your readings or study and practice them.
Fluency Practice
You can get a book like the one we used and continue to time yourself as you read.
Another way is to read something you have studied again. After you have learned all of the language. Read it again and push to read faster.
Textbook
You can buy the main textbook (there are three in the series) from Amazon. They come with an answer key. They aren't cheap (about ¥2500 each). One idea is to buy one or more together and share the books.

Also the speed reading passages are found in these books:
