No, it doesn't work that way. You said that they are inappropriate. Which standards are inappropriate, and how do you know that they are inappropriate? [/quote]

There is one posted above.  I've posted several on other threads.

Which one? This one?

CCSS.Math.Content.K.NBT.A.1
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.

The reactions to this one were:

1. My kid did this in pre-school
2. MCPS used to do this in kindergarten before the Common Core standards
3. Children who start kindergarten behind will not be able to do this

So no, I'm not persuaded. How about another one? How about this one, for example?

Count to 100 by ones and by tens.[/quote]
