Did you know cork shows up in school projects at almost every level? 🎓
Elementary students use discarded w**e corks to build creative structures. University students use thin cork sheets to make architectural models. College engineering teams even use cork in their concrete boat contests. 🛶
Part of the appeal is how easy cork is to work with. It’s lightweight, and cork sheets and rolled cork are simple to cut, shape, and glue. Recycled w**e corks also keep corks out of landfills while giving kids a reason to get creative.
With the semester in full swing, a project is probably coming up at your house. What’s the most creative thing you’ve seen with cork?
