Stimulating the reader's interest of students in teaching physics at school

Abstract

The article deals with the issue of stimulating reader’s interest in teaching physics which contributes to the formation of reading literacy among schoolchildren. The author's definition of “stimulating reader's interest in teaching physics” is given and the stages of stimulation for school are highlighted.

The author gives the example of a lesson’s fragment on the topic “Flat mirror” with the organization of stimulating reader’s interest using the techniques that form students' reading literacy at all the stages (pre-text, text, post-text) working with information of a physical content text. The requirements for assignments and recommendations for a physics teacher to stimulate reader’s interest are determined.

The analysis of motivation to carry out activities and the necessity to read physical content texts and perform tasks for them is presented.
