6-8-Year-Old Children’s Interest Towards Reading From The Aspects Of Their Textbook

Abstract

Reading topics also strongly influence interest in reading and the effectiveness of learning, interest in a certain topic motivates readers to engage with the text rather than regard it as a superficial structure, but to focus on the content and its underlying pillars. For this reason, a few years ago, we focused on developing an empirical research method that would allow us to examine the content of favorite stories of the target age group. In order to accurately examine the content, we created a triangulation study model based on the animated films, readings preferred by the pupils as well as the textual content of the alphabetical reading book. The current
study aimed to reveal content correlations between reading book instructional content and students ’interest. The results obtained with the developed measuring tool raise new aspects for rethinking the content of further alphabetical reading books and reading instruction texts.
