Recycled School Glue

Recently I had the opportunity to review the new recycled school glue from Nine Lives Products.  This glue is the only recycled glue available on the market! It's made from recycled styrofoam and plant-products, and the best part - it smells like oranges!

My class has been using interactive journals for math, reading, science, and social studies.  I love how the kids have an instant review!

We used the new glue on our social studies notebooks.  We are studying economics right now and learning about different kinds of resources.

The glue has a nice applicator tip and is easy to squeeze the bottle.  I did have a few problems with it getting clogged in the tip, but it was nothing that a trusty paperclip couldn't handle.  The caps were easy to get off, too.

We are using Corinna's economics unit.  We love it!

Do you want to try out a sample of recycled school glue for yourself?  I'm giving away 3 samples!  Just enter from the Rafflecopter below.  I'll pick a winner on Wednesday night!

  3. I am so over glue sticks. It's like the saying goes...'They don't make ______ like they used to." A glue stick seems to last less than a week, and that's with the kinder-bears who 'get' the process and don't overuse or cap it with the glue still up. I would love to try this new product. I have been pouring liquid glue into cupcake holders and letting them use q-tips because their little hands aren't strong enough to squeeze a bottle.

  10. Sounds Great!! We use glue almost daily, in our interactive notebooks and on many projects. Glue sticks constantly run out and most glue bottles are messy. It is a constant problem. Teresa tntjnj4@gmail.com

  12. This time of year our glue sticks are running out! We are always putting things in our interactive math and reading/writing journals! In my SpEd class the sensory aspect of the orange scent will be great, too!
