I have posted a series of video tutorial for Pharo and in some of them I
explain the basics of OO with practical examples

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqbtQ7OkSta0ULYAd7Qdxof851ybh-_m_

if you throw also PBE I think you pretty much covered.

OO is not really a difficult concept, an object is just a collection of
variables and methods and then it builds complexity from there. But if you
already so familiar with Squeak that should come as riding a bike, you cant
forget these things. So I am sure you will remember it quickly when you try
your your own experiments.

By the way welcome to Pharo and keep us posted with your progress .

Peronally I love Squeak is hands down the most elegant GUI system I have
used, but I use Pharo because its more actively developed and better in the
things that interest me.
