Parents and teachers should prioritize basic addition and subtraction word problems for children aged 7-8 because these skills form the foundation of mathematical understanding. At this developmental stage, children are starting to connect numeric concepts with real-world situations. Word problems help them apply math in practical contexts, improving their problem-solving skills and critical thinking.

Understanding addition and subtraction through word problems also enhances reading comprehension, requiring students to process language and discern relevant information. This dual focus supports cognitive development and equips children to tackle more complex mathematical concepts in the future.

Moreover, these skills foster confidence and independence in young learners, allowing them to feel empowered while navigating everyday situations, such as shopping or time management.
