Keynotes, Seminars, & Workshops for Teachers & Parents
Learn by doing in a fast-paced, interactive workshop with Dinah Zike or one of her knowledgeable trainers, including the directors at her highly acclaimed Dinah Zike Academy. Dinah or DZA trainers are available to conduct keynote speeches, teacher professional development, and parent workshops.
Participants leave each of our hands-on workshops with many action-based, multi-disciplinary manipulatives that they can use immediately with their students.
All trainers present practical instructional strategies and:
- Activities that reduce paper use district-wide;
- Activities that give teachers alternatives to photocopied worksheets;
- Activities that integrate science and social studies into the whole day;
- Activities that can be used for alternative assessment; and
- Activities that integrate the use of publishing centers and portfolios.

Some notes on scheduling a workshop:
We typically plan for a 2.5- to 3.0-hour workshop; if you'd like a workshop of a different length, please let us know. We work with all group sizes; please note approximate audience size as you begin making arrangements.
Dinah prefers to work with larger audiences (300 or more participants) in the morning for a 2.5- to 3.0-hour workshop. Sometimes districts work together to bring Dinah in and share the expenses of an unforgettable "Dinah-Might" experience.
Contact us to check Dinah's (or other trainers') availability and work out the details.
Please complete this planner and send it to our office at least 30 days prior to intended workshop via e-mail, fax, or snail mail so we can schedule just the right trainer for your needs.
Consider purchasing DMA books or materials for your workshop participants. Our trainers will be glad to share ideas for utilizing these books during the workshop and show your teachers how best to make use of them.
