    Parents and teachers should prioritize Normal Addition and Subtraction Word Problems for children aged 5-9 for several key reasons. Firstly, these word problems help build foundational math skills that are critical for a child’s cognitive development. They teach children how to identify and extract relevant information, enhancing their problem-solving abilities.
