Parents and teachers should prioritize problem-solving with addition and subtraction word problems for children ages 5-8 because these skills lay the foundation for mathematical understanding and critical thinking. At this age, children are transitioning from basic arithmetic to applying their knowledge in real-world contexts. Engaging with word problems encourages them to interpret scenarios and choose appropriate strategies for solving issues, fostering analytical and reasoning skills.

Problem-solving also enhances literacy, as children must read and comprehend the problem before solving it. This dual focus promotes overall cognitive development. Additionally, investigating how different scenarios can be approached aids children in connecting mathematical concepts to their everyday lives, making math more relevant and interesting.

The process of solving word problems instills persistence and resilience; students learn to navigate challenges and understand that making mistakes is a part of learning. Ultimately, nurturing these skills builds confident learners who are better prepared for future mathematical concepts and real-life challenges. By supporting children in mastering word problems, parents and teachers play a crucial role in equipping them with essential tools for success in both academics and their daily lives.
