Across grades K–12, some reading skills are significantly more difficult for students to learn than others. At Renaissance, we call these skills Trip Steps because they can cause a sudden stumble in learning.

Watch for an in-depth look at these challenging yet essential reading skills—which actually increase in number as students advance from elementary to middle school. You’ll understand:

  • How we identified Trip Steps—and why these skills are so challenging for students to master
  • Which grade levels and skill areas have the most reading Trip Steps
  • How Trip Steps align with the Science of Reading
  • Why an understanding of Trip Steps is vital for learning recovery
  • How to prioritize instruction on these critical skills this year

This recorded edWebinar is of interest to K-12 teachers, school and district leaders, reading directors, federal program directors, instructional coaches, and interventionists.
