Read the following scenario and explain the mistakes in Ana's mother's beliefs.

Ana's mother tells her preschool teacher that she is concerned about Ana, who is almost five. Ana's brother and
sister were both ahead of her when they were that age. Ana does not read any real words. She holds picture
books and just pretends to read and gets frustrated when her mother asks her to do it the real way. Ana
sometimes makes mistakes with her sentence structure and still has problems with buttons and shoelaces.

Answer:

Hi there!

Ana's mother's mistake is her comparing her to her other kids, and she's focusing only on her ability to read, not even looking at her other abilities. You can't have expectations for your younger kids to live up to their siblings reputation, everyone learns differently, some the same, some not. That's a lot of weight for a kid, not to mention, it will most likely stick with them for the rest of their lives and cause them to never feel good enough to anybody. and she's in preschool, I didn't learn how to tie my shoes until I was in kindergarten; it's not a big deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps! sorry if it doesn't
