This post was originally over on my own blog and I updated it there but I forgot to add that update here. My apologies. I've updated the post if you want to re-read it about the lesson from Primary Polka Dots. <br /><br />Update: I've recently discovered that Lindsay, over at Primary Polka Dots originally had this great Oreo idea and has the full lesson included in her Close Reading Passage packets. It's amazing how such a great idea can be spread far and wide: across schools, school districts, and across the country. In the few short months since I have posted this blog post about using Oreos in my classroom to teach close reading, I have had such an overwhelming response. Thank you Lindsay for the great idea! You are touching the lives of children far and wide, without even realizing it!! <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13284007382901929120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7798752244677910148.post-62968299641185620032015-12-08T18:46:07.658-05:002015-12-08T18:46:07.658-05:00I love this idea, but the link to the original les...I love this idea, but the link to the original lesson plan doesn't give an actual lesson plan.

However, Oreos contain Palm oil. I'd like to share another important message:<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKed5_eMyY0&app=desktop <br /><br />The lesson can be achieved using less harmful ingredients.
