The type of research used is quasi-experimental research because here the researcher wants to apply an action or treatment. Students' learning interest which affects pre-literacy skills is measured from the work with the T-Test which is carried out on the average class value of A1 and A2 lines Equal variance not assumed that the Sig (2-tailed) value is 0,000 where the value is < 0.05, it can be said that H0 is rejected, so it can be concluded that there is a significant difference / effect. From the mean difference, it shows that the class A2 score of -24 is greater than A1 of -31.8.
