Question: In the United States, what are kids 5-11 years old doing in math?

My group of college students knows these kids have trouble with math in general but we are not sure at what age they learn addition, subtraction, division, multiplication, etc. So, broken down by age, where should they be in math?

We want to create some games to help them learn math that are age appropriate. They will be separated by age during our time with them.
Thanks, sort of... That site only gives grade 3 and up. We're working from kindergarten up.

Answer: 5- counting
6- basic addition and subtraction
7- multiple digit addition and subtraction
8- multiplication and division, word problems
9- long division, higher multiplication, word problems, fractions, decimals
10- area, perimeter, square roots, word problems, LCM, GCF, adding and subtracting fractions, intro to basic algebra ( _ x 5= 30)

11- multiplying and dividing fractions, harder math problems
