What are doubles and near doubles?

A "doubles fact" is adding a number to itself (like 7 + 7). A "near doubles fact" is one number off from a double (like 7 + 8, which is just 7 + 7 + 1). Once students know their doubles facts cold, near doubles become fast mental shortcuts instead of problems they have to count out.
