Reading Interest Survey

Ms. Lucas’ Kindergarten Class

Name Date

The purpose or goal of this survey is to help me understand your needs as a reader in our class and to help determine your likes and dislikes with reading.

Directions: Listen carefully as I read each question. Use your crayon to color in the face for your answer choice. Answer either yes (smiley face), sometimes (straight face), or no (sad face).

Yes / Sometimes / No
1.  Do you like to read? / J / K / L
2.  Do you like when someone reads to you? / J / K / L
3.  Does someone read to you at home? / J / K / L
4.  Do you have books of your own? / J / L
5.  Do you like funny stories? / J / K / L
6.  Do you like scary stories? / J / K / L
7.  Would you like time to read at school? / J / K / L
8.  Would you like to read with a buddy/partner? / J / K / L
9.  Would you like to read to the class? / J / K / L
10.  Do you like school? / J / K / L

The data from the survey will be used to determine how students feel about reading. The data will be useful to me when I am selecting stories for a read aloud because I will know if the majority likes funny or scary stories. It is also useful for our daily 15 minutes of reading because I will know which students prefer to partner read or read independently.
