Guest Registration & The Forum

Welcome to the Guest Registration section. Please take a moment to review this section and register so that you may fully experience The Dinner Party Curriculum website. While parts of The Curriculum are immediately accessible, the main body of The Curriculum, "Fourteen Encounters and Classroom Connections", requires prior registration. Registration is also necessary to participate in The Forum, an interactive site. The Fourteen Encounters and The Forum are described briefly below, and more fully in the individual sections.

The Curriculum was written by a stellar curriculum team from the Kutztown University of Pennsylvania. The Encounters section contains suggested learning activities which demonstrate different approaches to The Dinner Party; teachers and students can use these as a basis to understand, explore and be empowered by the work. The Encounters are accompanied by examples of classroom activities by some of the teachers around the country who took part in The Dinner Party Teacher's Institute at Kutztown University. There are 14 different learning activities; these are divided into four groups, each with a particular goal. We will add new examples by teachers using The Curriculum so everyone can see the many applications of it. All of the material in The Encounters section is available in downloadable pdf form once registration is completed. In addition, a Resource packet containing visual material is available for purchase online.

Through the Flower's The Forum is a new feature we are introducing in connection with the launch of The Curriculum. This interactive site will be a place for you to share your experiences, questions and responses to The Curriculum, and it is open to everyone. We hope that you will use this as an additional resource in developing a program of study for The Dinner Party. In addition to postings we will be regularly updating The Forum with relevant news items as well as other communications from Through the Flower. The Forum is accessible without prior registration, but if you wish to actively participate by posting comments or responses, please first complete the registration form below. We look forward to hearing from you.
