About NorthLeaf 3-5s and Pre-K

Children have a natural ability to learn and grow through play. As they explore the world around them through their play, they begin to find their place in it. The 3-5s Class encourages a child’s natural curiosity through its play-based curriculum, sunlit classroom setting, and spacious outdoor play areas. 
 
The 3-5s Class is for children who will be between 3 and 5 years old by August 31st. The class is taught by Teacher Apurva and meets three times a week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings.
 
Each class includes…
  • Welcome circle time featuring student-led activities, songs, movement, and an overview of the activities that will be available during free play;
  • Free play at the various centers in the classroom – including art, sensory, dramatic play, block, fine motor manipulative, library, and more; 
  • Small group and snack time;
  • Large motor play in the outdoor play areas;
  • Closing circle time featuring songs, stories, and more student-led activities to say goodbye.
The 3-5s Class also has an additional Pre-K Class extended day program for children who will be 4 years old by August 31st. Our Pre-K students stay in class for an extra hour, getting individualized lessons tailored to their abilities and practicing their kindergarten-readiness skills.
