Book Description
Reading is an imperative skill for all students, but at the high school level it is rarely, if ever, a foci. This study intends to review previous practices of Sustained Silent Reading (SSR) and implement those practices on a cross-section of high school students. In doing so, the current research will seek to find answers to the following research questions: •How will Sustained Silent Reading (SSR) affect the reading levels of high school student participants? •What will be the effect of SSR on the students' perception of reading for pleasure? The focus of the literature review found common goals among SSR programs done at primary levels and lower levels of secondary education. These consisted of time devoted to SSR, the idea that SSR builds vocabulary and increases reading comprehension, the need for students to establishing ownership, and that there is a lack of studies done at the high school level to determine if an SSR program would be helpful to upper secondary students, not just ELD students. Based on the literature review, this case study established the need to include a cross-section of the school population in addition to ELD students. The current case study used quantitative methods by administering reading tests as well as reading habits and attitudes surveys to participants prior to the implementation of SSR. These tests were retrieved through the literature review and used to potentially duplicate results found through the previous literature. These same tests were administered after the SSR timeframe was completed. The results of the reading tests and surveys were reviewed based on the following groupings: ethnic, ELD, and overall. This was done to reflect many state and national tests which display similar grouping results. The findings, although limited, suggest that students' reading levels and attitudes toward reading for pleasure are positively affected by SSR. The outcomes of the various tests and surveys could potentially conclude that SSR is still needed at the upper secondary level to further help all students build their reading comprehension as well as develop a positive attitude towards reading for pleasure.
