A Sticky Situation

Help me give my students plenty of glue sticks to get us through the springtime.

My Project

To keep things fresh, this year I have done more cutting in projects which has led to the realization that I do not have enough glue.

I need a stockpile of glue sticks that I hope should last through the springtime and maybe the end of the year?

The projects that we have done this year have included things like; Ramen Bowls (glue needed for yarn noodles and cut paper shapes for bowl, seaweed, etc...) Matisse Fishbowls (glue needed for mosaic type designs on flower pots and wallpaper designs, etc...). The kids like these projects and are pretty happy with how they come out. Truth be told, cutting and pasting can be extra taxing for me with my littles who are not the greatest with fine motor skills but the artwork is always worthwhile and the kids feel so accomplished after sticking (ha) with a longer and more intense project.
