Instead of having them all stay on the same math paper I move them up once they master that skill. Which has helped a lot for the kids to feel confident in their work and know that they can move up at their own pace and not feel pressured to be on the same level as their peers . We celebrate when each student moves up and there is another page after the writing the teen numbers it is tracing 1-100 we have a few that are very close to that page I'm excited for them and they are excited as well. Thank you so much for helping me reach students at their pace.","fullyFundedDate":1736952223013,"projectUrl":"project/bridge-the-gap/8773435/","projectTitle":"Bridge the Gap","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Willis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8966359_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1697557274380","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8966359"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_104838","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":182,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":65,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - Pre-K","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":48.7,"schoolId":104838,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Freda Markley Early Childhood Center on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Freda Markley Early Childhood Center","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/hickman-mills-c-1-school-district/freda-markley-early-childood-center/104838"}
