[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why “Compose and decompose numbers from 11 to 19 into ten ones and some further ones, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each composition or decomposition by a drawing or equation (such as 18 = 10 + 8); understand that these numbers are composed of ten ones and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.” would make somebody's jaw drop. It basically asks a kindergartener to understand, by the end of kindergarten, that thirteen consists of one ten and three ones. What's more, I think that this is the most complex kindergarten math standard. And finally, this was on-grade-level math in my child's kindergarten class before the Common Core standards. The kindergarten teacher used Digi-Blocks.[/quote]
