Mental arithmetic skills are crucial for children aged 6-9, encompassing the ability to perform calculations in their heads without relying on written methods or calculators. This skill is foundational in fostering mathematical understanding, as it promotes number sense, problem-solving abilities, and cognitive flexibility.

Parents and teachers should prioritize mental arithmetic for several reasons. First, it boosts confidence as children master computation, helping them feel competent in math. Additionally, early proficiency in mental arithmetic lays the groundwork for future mathematical concepts, enabling children to tackle more complex topics like algebra and geometry as they grow. By improving mental math, children enhance their critical thinking skills, allowing them to tackle everyday challenges and real-world problems efficiently.

Moreover, these skills cultivate focus and concentration, as children practice holding numbers and operations in their mind. This mental agility not only aids academic performance but also translates to improved learning in other subjects. Finally, fostering a positive attitude towards math early in life encourages a lifelong interest and appreciation for the subject. As such, parents and teachers play a pivotal role in nurturing mental arithmetic skills, thereby setting the stage for academic success and a well-rounded education.
