Activities
Activities are implemented by the English teachers and take place in the afternoons from Monday to Thursday. Students participate in two activities each afternoon. Examples of activities are science experiments, art projects, yoga classes, soccer drills and tennis lessons. Many activities offer training from instructors in the related field for additional learning.
Teachers work with their students to strengthen their English skills during all activities. They encourage students to speak in English at all times, as well as to make friends from other countries!
Outings
All outings and sightseeing trips are lead and supervised by Bodwell Counselors. Our counselors live on-site to provide 24-hour care and supervision. They come from a variety of backgrounds such as education, recreation and counseling. Students are placed in groups.
Groups participate in hiking, canoeing, visiting famous attractions, exploring museums, and shopping, to name a few. Afterwards, groups participate in games and activities that develop trust and strengthens friendships.
ENGLISH CLASS
Thematic English learning is fun & vital
Focused English Learning
Students will participate in 15 hours of English Classes every week from Monday to Friday. Classes are taught by BC certified teachers. Many specialize in teaching English as a second language. They engage students in learning with an interactive approach aiming to increase self-confidence particularly in oral communication.
Thematic Curriculum
Teachers are all trained to create an active learning environment through the use of games, projects, portfolio development and a wide variety of other activities. Daily classes include a variety of English lessons on grammar, reading, writing, and oral skills. The curriculum includes science, ecology, social, geography and leadership topics that were originally designed by Bodwell teachers along weekly program themes.
Recognition of Achievement
At the end of the Program students will participate in a Graduation Ceremony where they will be recognized for their hardwork during their stay. All students will receive a Completion Certificate, Report Card with group photo, and souvenirs!
