Speaking activities in the English Club provide students with opportunities to practice using English communicatively outside of classroom instruction. However, the effectiveness of these activities requires supplementary teaching materials appropriate to students’ needs. Therefore, this research aimed to identify students’ needs in English Club speaking activities, develop supplementary speaking materials, and evaluate its quality and validity. This research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the Four D (4D) development model. The teaching materials were developed using the 4D model, which consists of the Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate stages; however, this study was limited to the Define, Design, and Develop stages. The study participants consisted of 20 students from SMP Negeri 2 Tarakan. Data were collected through a needs analysis questionnaire, interviews, expert validation, a teacher feedback questionnaire, and a student feedback questionnaire. The results of the needs analysis indicated that students’ speaking skills were still limited and that they experienced difficulties with vocabulary, grammar, sentence formation, pronunciation, and self-confidence. Students preferred familiar topics, multimedia-based activities, pronunciation exercises, games, collaborative activities, and conversation-based speaking tasks. Based on these results, an interactive digital e-worksheet was developed using Canva, featuring videos, quizzes, pronunciation exercises, partner conversations, interviews, speaking presentations, and reflection activities. The final product consisted of three unit topics: Daily Life, Hobbies, and School Life. The content expert validation yielded a score of 98.95% (highly appropriate), while the media expert validation yielded a score of 77.65% (appropriate). Teacher and student responses scored 98.10% and 81.07%, respectively, both of which fall into the highly appropriate category. Therefore, the developed E-Worksheet has been considered appropriate and suitable to be used as supplementary teaching material to support English Club activities at SMP Negeri 2 Tarakan.
