1994 VHS • An Introduction to The Bowdoin Method 60 FPS

About

From the Collection of Dr. Stevanne “Dr. Toy” Auerbach

An introductory promotional video for the Bowdoin Method, a structured parent education program designed for use in school settings. The program is presented from the perspective of a classroom teacher who describes how her school integrated the method across Chapter 1, Head Start, Even Start, Special Education, and community outreach programs. Running approximately eight minutes, the video outlines the program's four core goals: teaching parents to build positive relationships with their children, developing language and communication skills in the home, strengthening children's self-esteem, and giving parents a practical understanding of how children learn.

The Bowdoin Method is described as a sequenced curriculum spanning three levels: "Your Baby Talks to You" for expectant and infant-stage parents, Bowdoin One for parents of preschool through first grade children, and Bowdoin Two for parents of elementary and middle school age children. Each lesson includes a group-viewing video component and a take-home parent workbook. Supporting materials include a facilitator manual, role-playing activities, a Bingo-style reinforcement game called ChildO, and a motivational resource called the Secrets Book.
