At COTC Sherman Oaks Preschool, our three core values are:
Holistic Development
Individualized Attention
Holistic Development
We believe in nurturing the whole child – mind, body, and heart. Our approach to education encompasses not only academic learning but also emotional intelligence, social skills, and physical development. We encourage children to express themselves freely, build healthy relationships, and develop self-awareness.
Play-Based Learning
Individualized Attention
Holistic Development
We understand that play is the cornerstone of early childhood development. Through imaginative play, hands-on activities, and interactive games, we make learning enjoyable and engaging for our little learners. Play is how children naturally explore the world around them, and we embrace this fundamental aspect to encourage their curiosity and creativity.
Individualized Attention
Individualized Attention
Individualized Attention
Each child is unique and possesses their own strengths and interests. At our preschool, we celebrate these differences and tailor our teaching methods to accommodate individual learning styles. Our skilled and caring educators provide one-on-one attention to ensure every child thrives and reaches their full potential.
Our preschool curriculum is carefully crafted
Cognitive Development:
We stimulate children's cognitive abilities through age-appropriate activities that encourage problem-solving, critical thinking, and memory retention. These activities involve puzzles, storytelling, counting games, and exposure to early literacy and numeracy concepts.
Social and Emotional Development
We prioritize social interactions, helping children build friendships, practice empathy, and learn conflict resolution. Through group activities, collaborative projects, and discussions, we instill important social skills that will serve them well throughout life.
Physical Development
Our curriculum includes activities that promote gross and fine motor skills. Whether it's running, jumping, dancing, or working with arts and crafts materials, we create opportunities for children to enhance their physical abilities in a safe and supportive environment.
Language Development:
Language is fundamental to communication and expression. We foster language development through storytelling, vocabulary building exercises, and opportunities for children to express their thoughts and feelings.
Creative Expression
Art, music, and drama are essential tools for nurturing creativity and self-expression. We encourage children to explore various forms of art, engage in imaginative play, and participate in music and movement activities.
