Therefore, it needs a strategy that can develop interest in reading and writing by giving a reading task that is constantly built as part of learning in the classroom with the main task to make a review as a literacy activity.
Operational Definition of Research Variables
METHODOLOGY OF THE RESEARCH
Subject of the Research
Instrument of the Research
The findings of this research present the data of the effect of rotational reading on students' reading and writing interest. The result shows that students' reading interest in rotating reading class is higher than students'. Furthermore, the average score of students' writing interest in rotational reading class (34) is in the range of 31-40 under classification of high interest.
Meanwhile, in non-rotational reading classes, the mean of students' writing interest (27) showed to be in the range of 21-30 under medium interest classification. In the following section, the researcher also explained the frequency of students' reading and writing interest in rotational reading classes and non-rotational reading classes. This result shows the relationship between rotation reading related to the duration they spend except study time when they.
This result shows the correlation between the number of readings and the frequency of visiting the library in a month.

Unfortunately, this method does not affect students' interest in reading and writing in the non-rotational reading class.

Discussion
This result implies the basic principle of rotational reading, namely the constant frequency of reading the book in correlation with the students". The result also shows another effect that interest can improve the success of the spin reading method. Circulated reading, which is one of the literacy activities, makes the reading activity an integral part of learning.
Pupils at the school where rotational reading is used in Labakkang also save their money to buy reading resources. The basic principle of rotational reading is to read many books by rotating to read the book and then make a summary from the books students have read. The purpose of giving the task of writing a summary is to see the students' interest in writing.
If students' interest in reading is high, interest in interpretation and skill will also be high. On the contrary, if students' interest in reading is low, their interest in writing presentation text and writing skill will also be low.86 This correlation is similar in the study of Delviawati et. The results showed that students with high interest in reading have better skills in writing expository text than students with low interest in reading.
This chapter clarifies the result of a statistical test to find out the effect of rotation reading on students' reading and writing interest. This research aimed to find out the effect of one of the teaching strategies, namely alternating reading versus students' reading and writing interests. The result showed that students who study English in a reading and writing class have a higher interest in both reading and writing in English than students who study English in a reading class without rotation.
In addition, the result shows that the number of students who have a low level of interest in the rotation reading class is smaller than the students in the non-rotational reading class. The topic of the text that students read also helps build their interest in both reading and writing. It is important for the next researcher to conduct an experiment with this rotational reading method and collaborate with other strategies that can increase students' writing interest.
