Reading literacy activities are currently being held by all levels of education. Literacy activities have a positive effect on students in understanding information. The ability to understand information can be realized through mathematical representation, which is one of the main elements in mathematical understanding. This research can help educators in mapping the mathematical representation ability based on the reading interest of students. The purpose of this research is to identify which indicators can be mastered by students who have reading interests at high, medium, and low levels. This research is qualitative. The research subjects were students of the Mathematics Education Department of Ivet University. The data collection procedures used were scale, test, and interview. The instruments of this study were the reading interest scale, mathematical representation ability test, and interview sheets. The data analysis technique of this study adopted data analysis techniques from Miles and Huberman. The conclusions of this study are (1) students with high and medium reading levels have the ability to represent mathematical representations to model and interpret physical, social, and mathematical phenomena; have the ability of mathematical representations to create and use representations to communicate mathematical ideas or concepts; have the ability of mathematical representations in selecting, applying, and translating mathematical representations to solve problems, (2) students with a low reading level have lacked on the ability of mathematical representations to use representations to model and interpret physical, social, and mathematical phenomena, thus it caused them couldn’t mastering the ability of mathematical representations to create and use representations to communicate mathematical ideas or concepts and the ability of mathematical representations to select, apply, and translate mathematical representations to solve problems. Keywords: mathematical representation ability, reading interest, geometry.

AbstractThe mathematical representation ability referred to in this study is the ability to express mathematical ideas or ideas to solve a problem with various mathematical representations of visual forms (pictures) and verbal forms (writing).This type of research is descriptive with a qualitative approach which aims to describe systematically the ability of visual mathematical representations and the ability of verbal mathematical representations.The data collection technique in this study was carried out using essay. Test questions were given to student an grade VIII A at SMP Negeri 1 Mandor, where there were three groups, namely the upper, middle, and lower group. Students who will be interviewed are selected based on the representation ability test scores where only two students will represent for each group.The results showed that the ability of visual mathematical representation when given verbal form questions to answer indicators using pictures was in the percentage of students' average score 66.67% and the ability of verbal mathematical representation if given visual questions, for the answer indicator using words is in the percentage of the student's average score of 33.33%. Students still have difficulty with verbal representation if given a visual form. Keywords: visual representation, verbal representation and trangle material

Mathematical representation skill is students' ability to express mathematical ideas (such as problems, statements, and definitions) in various ways to solve problems through multiple representations, such as images, words, tables, and symbols mathematics. Students are struggling in representing mathematical ideas. It hampers them in determining the solution of mathematical problems. They are careless in reading the word problems, lacking problem analysis, less thorough, and struggling to connect concepts. The subjects of this study were in two students from one of the junior high school in Jambi. The instruments used for this research were VVQ, Mathematical Representation Ability Test and interviews. This study used a descriptive qualitative method. The results showed that the representation abilities of students with visualizer and verbalizer style were quite good. However, each subject had a different way of solving problems. Visualizers were more interested in questions with image information in solving the problem. Verbalizer tended to prefer information with detailed wording.

Problem solving is a basic skill that should be possessed by students. Mathematical problem solving abilities play a role in solving every problem both other subjects and problems in everyday life. Through mathematical problem solving activities students are directed to build mathematical knowledge, think logically, systematically and measurably. The fact is that students' mathematical problem solving abilities are still low. The learning process that focuses on exercises that provide opportunities for students to develop mathematical problem solving skills to become a model for improvement in the learning process. The Missouri Mathematical Project learning model is an appropriate learning model to facilitate students in developing their thinking in solving mathematical problem solving problems. For this reason, this study aims to improve students' mathematical problem solving abilities through the application of the Missouri mathematical learning model. This type of research is a classroom action research (PTK). The research subjects were grade V students of MIS Al Firdausy Pematang Reba. The data collection technique used was a mathematical problem-solving ability test. The data analysis technique used is quantitative data analysis. Based on the results of the test of mathematical problem solving abilities, there was an increase in each cycle starting from the initial pre-action test, cycle I and cycle II. It can be concluded that there is an increase in students' mathematical problem solving abilities through the application of the Missouri mathematical learning model.
