Are you looking for ways to supplement your classroom curriculum? Explore the variety of resources the Detroit Zoological Society has to offer, including cross-curricular, multi-session units; shorter, high-energy lessons; synchronous and asynchronous options.
Join us for dynamic workshops on a variety of topics – from creating science lessons inspired by children’s literature, to creating a wildlife-friendly garden space that ties into your mandated curriculum, to exploring humane education and so much more. The Detroit Zoo is the perfect venue to bring excitement and adventure back to learning while earning SCECHs.
The Detroit Zoological Society’s Day at the Zoo (DATZ) is funded by generous donors, including those who have contributed to the David K. Page Fund.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, DATZ is temporarily shifting to Day with the Zoo, an educational program that provides an opportunity for students to experience a virtual visit with the Zoo, by providing financial assistance to classrooms where funds may be limited. To apply for DATZ funds, select the “Virtual Day at the Zoo” banner above.
