Car Spun Out Twice on highway? Why?

Okay so I'm pretty young, 18, and have only been driving for a year and a half. I'm a decent driver though and do a lot of highway driving as I commute 40 minutes to school each day. Today my friend and i were driving home on the highway, it was raining quite a bit, and when we were going up on to the highway, only about 35 mph, we spun out. Luckily didn't hit anything. We thought it was a freak thing so we kept going, very slow, like 30 mph. Then it happened AGAIN when we were slowing down to go down a ramp to get off the highway. We spun out and luckily only hit a rail very slightly. I want to know what I can do to prevent this and the future and if anything, like worn tires, can make spinning out more prone to happen? It just seemed strange as we were going very slow and still kept spinning out. I have a 2004 ford focus if that matters. Thanks so mych
