Parents and teachers should prioritize developing problem-solving abilities in second-grade students, especially with regard to addition and subtraction, because these foundational skills are vital for their educational growth and daily life interactions. At this age, children are transitioning from simple counting to more complex mathematical concepts. Mastering addition and subtraction sets the stage for future mathematical learning, including multiplication, division, and beyond.

Problem-solving skills not only enhance mathematical understanding but also foster critical thinking. When students tackle addition and subtraction problems, they learn to analyze situations, create strategies, and make decisions. These abilities are transferable to other subjects and real-life scenarios, such as measuring ingredients in a recipe or managing time. Moreover, developing these skills early promotes confidence, perseverance, and a positive attitude towards challenges.

For teachers, integrating problem-solving into lessons encourages active learning and engagement. It helps in identifying students' strengths and areas needing improvement, allowing for targeted support. For parents, supporting these skills at home reinforces classroom learning, creating a consistent and supportive learning environment. Therefore, emphasizing problem-solving in Grade 2 addition and subtraction not only builds a strong arithmetic foundation but also cultivates essential life skills that benefit students beyond the classroom.
