The article presents specific approaches in semantic reading teaching among preschoolers. Special attention is given to uphold the necessity of skills development for further semantic analysis, as well as to inquire into the principles of semantic reading teaching and selecting texts for reading in preschool. The authors describe general methodological approaches to the development of a system of questions and tasks for texts based on various types of reading.

The article highlights the structural and functional approach in the process of teaching semantic reading, analyzes different aspects of the interaction of the author, the reader and the work, identifies ways to solve the problem of adequate perception of the author’s semantic world by the reader. As a tool that helps to penetrate into the meaning of the work, iconic modeling is considered in two varieties — figurative-semantic (verbal drawing) and logicalsemantic models (the technique of “binary oppositions”), which serves as the basis of meaning generation in the process of reading, the reader’s interpretation of the work. The proposed approach allows us to take a fresh look at the methodology of functional literacy formation in the context of the development of semantic reading skills of a literary text.

The aim of this study is to determine the representation of groups of reading skills in the Federal State Educational Standards 2010 and 2021 and Universal Codifiers for 9th grade within all academic subjects. The main research method in this work is content analysis and comparison of reading literacy skills (RL) according to PISA, the FSES 2010 and 2021 and the Universal Codifier for 9th gradе. The results of the study reflect the сorrelation between RL framework in educational standards, and also fix the need to systematize the RL skills.
