“Toothpaste with a Twist!”

FREE K-12 Teacher Workshop

Women in Mining invites High Desert Educators to a unique

workshop designed to equip teachers with the tools necessary to teach their

students about everyday products that use locally-mined minerals directly, or products that are made from minerals, such as toothpaste!  Teachers will learn how to make a “marketable” toothpaste, investigate minerals such as calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate, and learn about mining practices through hands-on activities.  Participants will  also receive a kit to take back to the classroom to share these fun and investigative activities with their students!
