My curriculum follows the Utah State CORE standards for preschool with an emphasis on the science of reading, especially phonological awareness and phonics! Learning activities are very play-based and hands-on. We spend a lot of time developing social emotional skills, as well as fine motor skills. I also have a take-home reading program for those who are ready.
