= **Research Question: Does discussing reading passages boost the interest of reluctant readers?** = =Hypothesis: I predict that discussing does boost the interest of reluctant readers because I generally don't like to read Non-fiction, but if I discuss it with my Mom or Dad, it becomes more interesting.=

Controlled variables: I controlled the type of writing I used in the two passages
=Conclusion= =Discussing and letting the kids talk and form opinions and not really control them, helps them to understand and probably like reading better.= =Advice-= =When you are reading something that you don't like, get together with someone and discuss it to get different opinions and different points of view.=

After -- In the future I might want to Identify my purpose. -- Other than the reason of having to read so many things and definitely get good grades on everything, (get more practice), I didn’t really think that the fix-up strategies made me more confident. -- To figure out how to completely increase the interest level of reluctant readers

Controlled variables: I controlled the type of writing I used in the two passages Manipulated Variable: discussing and not discussing the passage. Observations- The students clearly didn't like reading. They were all friends so when I gave them the passage, they started complaining about how long it was. It was only one page long. The first two students took some time to read because they kept talking to each other. The second batch said that they liked discussing the passage even more than just reading it. They were friends but they didn't really talk while reading. They discussed the passage just fine and seemed to actually like the passage a little bit. They also formed opinions and connected.
