No, money that is earned within the Traditional IRA account is simply earnings.  These earnings are still tax-deferred and are not included as part of your income tax return until you take a distribution from the account.  You do not need to report this on your return.  

It is also not counted as a contribution to the IRA account, so there's also nothing to report in that section of your return.
