Parents and teachers should prioritize the practice of subtraction alongside extra challenge addition and subtraction word problems for children aged 5 to 9 because these foundational skills are crucial for mathematical development and critical thinking. Mastery of subtraction equips children with the ability to understand and manipulate numbers, laying the groundwork for more advanced math concepts. This foundational knowledge not only nurtures academic success but also fosters confidence in their problem-solving abilities.

Incorporating extra challenge activities can engage students, enhancing their cognitive skills and encouraging them to approach problems creatively. Word problems, in particular, encourage children to apply their mathematical understanding in practical scenarios, such as budgeting or measuring, helping to bridge the gap between math and real life. Learning to interpret and solve word problems cultivates literacy skills and improves comprehension, encouraging students to think critically and analytically.

Furthermore, working on these skills collectively supports the development of perseverance and resilience in children, as they learn to face challenges and think outside the box. By supporting subtraction and word problem practice, parents and teachers can guide children toward becoming well-rounded mathematicians, equipping them with essential life skills that extend far beyond the classroom.
