Use near-doubles facts

Near-doubles reasoning treats an addition fact with consecutive addends as a known doubles fact adjusted by one: 7+87+8 can be found from 7+7+17+7+1 or 8+818+8-1. This supports flexible recall of addition and related subtraction facts within 20 and develops decomposition and recombination of quantities; it does not include generalized strategies for larger numbers or formal algebraic treatment.
