Parents and teachers should prioritize addition and subtraction skills for children aged 5-9 because these foundational math concepts are essential for overall mathematical competence. Mastering these skills sets the groundwork for more complex arithmetic, which is crucial as children progress in their education. Proficient addition and subtraction help develop critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, enabling students to tackle daily life challenges, such as budgeting and time management.

Moreover, early mastery of these skills can boost a child's confidence and foster a positive attitude towards math. Children who grasp basic operations early are more likely to engage in mathematics, which will benefit their academic journey in other subjects, as math is integral to science, technology, engineering, and economics (STEM).

Additionally, these skills are often linked to cognitive development, aiding in logical reasoning and memory. Engaging young learners in fun and interactive activities involving addition and subtraction can make learning enjoyable, paving the way for lifelong learners.

Finally, strong addition and subtraction abilities enable students to compete more effectively in a globalized society where quantitative literacy is increasingly valued. Therefore, emphasizing these skills is fundamental to supporting children's holistic educational development.
