Before Research I was not a very confident reader before
the experiments I did. I felt that summarizing, fix-up strategies and other ways to help reading were useless. I had a hard time understanding Informational, Technical and Persuasive Text. I never improved on that topic. I rate my confidence level out of 10 I would give myself a 61/2.
![Page 6: Reading Research](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815787550346895dc51cd3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
During Research During Crispin I started summarizing the
chapter we were going to be tested on for the test to see if it helped me personally. My quiz grade did slightly increase and I felt that I understood the reading better. I also started using the fix-up strategy of taking notes when I read stuff.

After Research Now I summarize all most all the
readings we have after I read them because I know that it will improve my comprehension of the reading. This has worked out well so far. Also I take notes when reading. I pull out important details and the main idea when I take the notes. In almost all my journals I took notes and I really understood the reading after that. I learned that taking notes and summarizing really works for me during this unit. I would rate my confidence now about an 81/2 now.

My Question
Does summarizing a passage after you read it improve your comprehension of the reading?
![Page 9: Reading Research](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815787550346895dc51cd3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why this question? I hate to summarize and I’m not very
good at doing it. So I was interested to see if summarizing had any effect on comprehension of readings. If it proved true I would try to summarize passages in my head after reading to improve my comprehension. If proven false then I would continue to not summarize.

My Hypothesis Summarizing does improve your
comprehension of the reading because it gets your brain thinking about the text.

First Test For my first test I tested a boy that
didn’t summarize. My problem was I let him look at the text when he was taking the test and he got a hundred percent. I did it again with a girl this time and she also got a hundred percent. Then I saw the flaw and changed it so that when you took the test you were not allowed to look back at the test.

Procedures (second test) 1. First I gathered 1 boy and 1 girl randomly from Mrs. Kelly’s
room.2. Then I handed each of them a short reading selection
about what a person hears and comparing it to his old home.
3. When they were finished reading I gave them both a piece of paper and told them to summarize the passage on the piece of paper with the reading next to them.
4. When they were finished summarizing I gave them the test and told them to right the test answers on the same paper as the summary with out the test.
5. Then I got 1 boy and 1 girl randomly from Mrs. Kelly’s room.
6. I handed them the same selection as the other students.7. After they were finished I took away the passage and gave
them the test.8. After they were finished with the test I graded the tests
and analyze the data.

Variables Manipulated Variable- Whether the
student summarized or not. Response Variable- Test grade and
time it took. Controlled Variables- The test, the
reading passage and they weren’t allowed to look at text during test.

Notes on Experiment Students
Student that summarized- Average 11/14 Student 1 (girl)- 10/14
Her summary quality was weak and rushed through the summary.
Didn’t rush test- took about 3 min. Student 2 (boy)- 12/14
Spent time on the summary and good quality
Didn’t rush test- took about 3min.

Notes on Experiment Students
Students that didn’t Summarize- Average 6/14 Student 1(girl)- 8/14
Took time on test- about 3 min. Student 2 (boy)- 4/14
Took time on test- about 4 min.

ResultsThe people that summarized got better scores than the people that didn’t summarize. Also the quality of the summary effected the quiz grade. The people that didn’t summarize never got a score above 60%, both of them failed.Summarizing Average~ 78.5% or 11/14Non-Summarizing Average~ 42.8% or 6/14

RecommendationsI would recommend that all students summarize passages after they read the passage because it will improve your comprehension of the reading according to my test. Summarizing really makes your brain think about the text and comprehend it better.
