Reading literacy at the present stage of education development is considered as the basis for the success of school graduates, the guarantee of further self-education and self-development, socialization in society. The basis for the formation of reading literacy is laid already in primary school. Most teachers organize work with text in lessons on the subject "Literary Reading", less often in lessons on the subject "The World Around Us". Basically, the work is carried out with fiction texts, educational articles, and less often with scientific texts. However, such work is not systematic as a rule. Therefore, it is important to look for new effective approaches that allow building a system of work on developing reading literacy in primary school students. The aim of this article is to consider the possibilities of developing reading literacy when conducting research in primary school lessons through working with text information. In accordance with the goal, the following tasks are set: to characterize reading literacy as a key new formation of a modern schoolchild; to examine conducting research in primary school lessons as a productive way of organizing work with text information; to analyze the possibilities of using different types of reading: viewing, searching, familiarizing, studying in research lessons in primary school; to develop an approach to working with text information when conducting research, allowing to develop groups of reading skills underlying the reading literacy of primary school students. To solve the set tasks, the following theoretical methods were used: analysis of state and international documents, domestic and foreign scientific and methodological literature, synthesis, generalization. The study is based on the following: systems approach, activity theory, general approaches to the formation of functional literacy, theoretical approaches to the reading literacy of schoolchildren, scientific approaches to the concept of "research activity". As a result of the work, a new approach to working with text information when conducting research in primary school lessons is presented. We see the theoretical significance of the article in considering research organized in lessons as a productive form of educational activity for the development of reading literacy. We also analyzed the types of reading from the point of view of developing reading skills. The practical significance of their use is substantiated depending on the goals of searching activities when working with text information. This solution can be useful for primary school teachers for systemic work on the development of reading skills that underlie the reading literacy of schoolchildren.
