twos, fives and tens.
§111.3. Mathematics, Grade 1, Adopted 2012.
(b) Knowledge and skills.
(5) Algebraic reasoning. The student applies mathematical process standards
to identify and apply number patterns within properties of numbers and
operations in order to describe relationships. The student is expected to:
(B) skip count by twos, fives, and tens to determine the total number of
