Welcome to the O.R.E.O. Project 2009! ( O ur R eally E xciting O nline Project) **Project Dates: September 21 to October 16, 2009** ** IMPORTANT INFORMATION **  You will measure the **COUNT** of cookies used to stack -- Each participating class needs at least 1 bag of Nabisco's Oreo® Chocolate and Creme Sandwich Cookies. Students will observe how many oreos they are able to stack before the oreos® tumble. Students are encouraged to speculate how many oreos® they think they will be able to stack and then compare actual results. Students are NOT to use **anything** to stablize the cookie and they are **NOT** able to adjust cookies as they stack. (i.e....once they have placed the cookie and their hand has left the cookie, they may **NOT** adjust that cookie again.) Each student will have **TWO** attempts to stack oreos® and will recordthe highest amount they were able to stack before tumbling.
 * Classrooms are invited to participate. Each classroom will need to have each student stack oreo® cookies as high as he or she can and then average all their individual results to achieve a final Class result.**
 * NOT** height of stack.

Teachers will needto explain to their students that this is a project with schools all over the world and also explain what information this project is attempting to collect. They also need to discuss that at the end of the project, all results will from their classroom will be averaged and posted!

Once the entire class has stacked their oreos®, they will average all their results to turn in ONE class amount. A voice thread will be available for classrooms to share their O.R.E.O. experiences
