Parents and teachers should prioritize subtraction practice, especially through extra challenge activities focused on addition and subtraction word problems for children aged 6-7, as it lays the foundation for essential mathematical skills. At this developmental stage, children are transitioning from basic number recognition to understanding more complex concepts. Mastery of subtraction is crucial, not only for general mathematics but also for real-world applications.

Engaging with challenging word problems enhances critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, encouraging students to analyze situations and devise solutions. This not only bolsters their mathematical confidence but also promotes cognitive flexibility. Additionally, practicing subtraction in varying contexts helps learners recognize the practical importance of math in daily life, such as budgeting or sharing.

Furthermore, consistent practice mitigates the "math anxiety" some children experience. Success with these problems fosters a growth mindset, where they view challenges as opportunities rather than obstacles. For educators and parents, supporting this aspect of learning can promote a collaborative and encouraging atmosphere, vital for fostering a lifelong love for mathematics and education in general. In summary, effective subtraction practice through engaging challenges builds foundational skills and instills confidence, setting children up for success both academically and personally.
