Reading targets-teacher inquiry

This year for my teacher inquiry I really want to focus on reading targets. My aim is help student build more confidence in their reading ability and also to finds something they enjoy reading.

So far for my inquiry I have got everyone in the Marama Team (including targets) to complete a reading questionnaire about themselves. I have also used the information gathered on here to make groups for Book Bash or other reading activities based on interests. Here is the survey:

After looking at what this is really telling me I found some interesting things. I analysed our 19 target students Reading surveys and found the following things.

For the question How would you rate how much you love reading 1-10 (1 not very much-10 you love reading)
2 rated reading as 1-3  
11 said 4-6
6 said 7-10

For the following question I think reading is..... where they had to finish the sentence I got the following replies:
I think reading is not a thing for me because I don’t enjoy sitting down and read a book because I like to move around and use my body.
I think reading is _Amazing because it helps you in the future 
I think reading is Reading through book clearly to others.
I think reading is______4_
I think reading is___cool and fun.
What is reading?I think reading is when read a book
I think reading is nice to read by myself somewhere quite.
I think reading is-Reading is fun but you just have to find a book you like
I think reading,  is ok, I don’t love it but I don’t hate it either.
I think reading is__Fun_if I am interested in the book I think reading is fun and interesting and gives you lots of information  
I think reading is____Awesome_and_fun
I think reading is______AwesomeI think reading is__Kinda fun.
I think reading is a good way for me to be a good reader 
I think reading is_not fun because it’s just not something I like.
I think reading is cool

And two students didn't answer.

I found this very interesting. Only 2 of these students seem to dislike reading which showed through the ratings and the comments. What I found really positive is that most of these students don't mind reading and that some really like it. After thinking more about this it makes me think that most of these students do like reading but maybe they don't like how we do reading at school and that I need to do some further investigating with these students.
