Wasatch Preschool Curriculum
At Wasatch Preschool, we use The Creative Curriculum, a research-based approach used in many Utah kindergartens. This creates a smooth, confident transition from preschool to kindergarten while honoring how young children learn best—through play.
Each day is thoughtfully balanced to support both academic growth and joyful exploration:
One-third of the day is devoted to intentional learning through circle time, guided discussions, and small-group activities that build early literacy, math, and social skills.
Two-thirds of the day is spent in child-directed, free-choice play—both indoors and outdoors—within a carefully prepared environment designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving.
Through this balance of structured learning and purposeful play, children develop the skills they need for school readiness while maintaining a love of learning.
