[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Not that PP. Doubles are not the last way to add, they are one of the first ways. One strategy, to use at the beginning of learning about addition. They are not the end goal, although bad math programs/teachers might teach them as if they are. Just one way to use numbers. PP was showing that even Singapore math describes them as a first method, before students memorize addition facts. There's no need to get angry about doubles, counting on, etc. These are very junior-level strategies that students will soon move on from.[/quote] Again, no, Singapore Math does not use doubles. They do have books dedicated to Common Core specifically and maybe that's where people keep getting this quote from. The original, regular Singapore math does not use doubles. At all. I have used their books for 2-3 years now. No, there is no doubes concept in there. Period.[/quote]
