Summary/Abstract: Future primary school teacher's preparation problem - boys' and girls' reading skills differences are discussed in this article. Data on national schoolchildren's reading achievement research is discussed here, too. Boys' and girls' reading habits are discussed in theses aspects: how fourth form schoolchildren apprehend fiction and informative text; what relation is between reading achievement, motivation and verbal experience gained in babyhood and early childhood. But nobody paid attention at this problem neither in Basic Development programs, nor in Development standards. Reading skills research results must be stimulus for future teachers to be interested in boys' and girls' reading skills (not only reading skills but writing skills and other basic habits) differences and accordingly to organise developing activities at school.
