Chapter 9
For
my action research project, I am researching how incorporating student’s interests can
benefit motivation as well as student success. Chapter nine discussed the importance of
incorporating student’s interests when choosing texts and I am going to
incorporate this into my reading groups after students are surveyed. The text
stated the importance of motivating children to be readers. I think this is one
of the most important aspects when teaching reading. If students are not
motivated or have the desire to read, students will not want to take part in
reading on their own. Presenting texts that students can relate to is another
important aspect when choosing texts. Just as students, I am more interested in
a text if I am personally able to relate to the reading. This chapter was very
beneficial in that it provided me with a variety of texts to read as well as
reasons as to why you should incorporate them in your classroom.
