Renaissance Focus Skills Research and Resources

Focus Skills, the building blocks of student learning, are based on extensive research into how learning progresses in reading and math. The Focus Skills Resource Center provides detailed information on both essential grade-level skills and the necessary prerequisites by state, including Focus Skills for Spanish reading, free to all schools.

Information on Math Trip Steps and Reading Trip Steps, the essential reading and math skills that may be more challenging and difficult for students to master, is also available within the resource center. Knowing which skills are most difficult for students to learn at grade level is valuable for educators to help guide planning and instruction—and support the important work of learning recovery—during the summer and throughout the year.
