More
about The Bowdoin Method…
The Bowdoin Method empowers families
with the basic skills and confidence
to meet the social, emotional and
academic needs of their children for
school success! Children who enter
school with language skills and pre-reading
skills are more likely to read well
and succeed in later years.
The Nationally Validated Bowdoin Method
was researched and developed for 8
years with over 1,200 low literacy
families. The results were an amazing
36% increase in school readiness scores.
The unique, multi-cultural videos/DVDs
and “easy to read” parent
books motivate and inspire the parents
to be the first and best teachers
of their children. |
"A
lot of times going off in a rage makes
my child rebel instead of listening
to what I have to say. With the Bowdoin
Method I've learned to sit down and
talk to my child when something goes
wrong."
A Dad and Graduate of The
Bowdoin Method |
The
Bowdoin Method has been endorsed by Title
I, Even Start, The National Center for Family
Literacy, Migrant Even Start, Head Start,
Healthy Families, Drug Abuse Prevention and
National Child Abuse Prevention.
How Will The Bowdoin Method Strengthen Your
Program?
The Bowdoin Method offers educators practical,
effective and fun materials that focus on
the parent as a partner in the teaching process.
All parents can be effective teachers if they
are motivated and taught how and what to do.
The lessons are simple and direct, easily
understood and require little preparation.
Even a Volunteer can teach Bowdoin!
