Oreo Cookies

In Gr. 5/6 at QEB, students were using their senses to uncover a repertoire of descriptive words to reflect their YUMMY oreo cookie experience. 

Students were asked to write one paragraph describing an oreo cookie to someone who has no idea what an oreo cookie is. 

After sharing their written responses, students were given an oreo cookie and asked to re-write their paragraph using personal experience along with co-constructed success criteria. 

Finally, students became each other's "critical friend" to receive immediate feedback about their descriptive paragraph.
