Reading comprehension and the ability to solve multiplication and division word problems are critical skills for children ages 5-9, laying the foundation for their future academic success. Understanding how to read and interpret word problems engages children's reasoning and critical thinking skills. This early development boosts their cognitive abilities, enhancing both their reading and their quantitative literacy.

Parents and teachers should prioritize these skills because they are interconnected with everyday life. For instance, reading comprehension allows children to grasp not only mathematical concepts but also narratives in their reading materials. When students decipher word problems, they practice deconstructing complex sentences, identifying key information, and applying mathematical operations to solve real-world scenarios. This practical application fosters a deeper understanding of mathematics.

Moreover, strong reading and math skills increase self-confidence. Children who excel in these areas are more likely to participate in class, tackle challenging problems, and embrace learning. Lack of proficiency early on can lead to negative attitudes towards mathematics and reading, creating obstacles in their academic journey. By focusing on these skills, parents and teachers help children build resilience, curiosity, and a love for learning—essential attributes for their lifelong educational paths.
