Parents and teachers should prioritize subtraction practice and normal addition and subtraction word problems for children aged 6-9 because these skills build the foundation for more advanced mathematical learning. Mastery of basic arithmetic is crucial for students' success in various contexts; these mathematical operations are the building blocks for understanding more complex concepts such as multiplication, division, fractions, and algebra.

Early proficiency in arithmetic enhances cognitive development, including problem-solving, logical reasoning, and critical thinking abilities. Regular practice helps reinforce memory, allowing children to recall facts more quickly and apply them accurately across different scenarios, whether academic or real-world contexts like handling money or measuring ingredients for a recipe.

Solving word problems also sharpens reading comprehension and the ability to interpret and construct logical arguments from given information. It mimics real-life situations, making math more engaging and relevant. Importantly, consistent practice builds confidence, reducing math anxiety, which can otherwise impede learning progress and negatively impact academic self-esteem.

In summary, focusing on these critical math skills from an early age ensures children develop a robust mathematical foundation that can support future educational endeavors and everyday decision-making skills.
