Alice in Wonderland Printables



These 4 worksheets were passed out during our Alice in Wonderland week for kids to take home to do during Covid. 

They are aimed at tweens ages 8-12, with an elapsed time math worksheet, practicing similes and metaphors and two imagination activities.

Here's a brief run-down of the different printables...

Mystery Color-By-Letter   This was inspired by the Fantasy Color By Numbers I made a few weeks
ago and the White Rabbit. This is the only front and back activity.

It uses elapsed time questions to determine the crayon color which will be used on the grid. Each box on the grid is assigned a letter instead of a number. Coloring the grids using the correct colors will reveal a hidden image. Technically, message. Spoiler Alert: It say's "Curiouser and Curiouser" with a pink background.
 

Similes and Metaphors This activity was made in conjunction with a new bulletin board.

"The Jabberwocky" by Lewis Carroll, is a nonsensical poem in Through the Looking Glass, one of the books in the Alice series. Many of the words are made-up words but the poem describes a beast.

There were really 2 separate prompts for this poem specifically. Kids were encouraged to read the poem, paying special attention to the words describing the beast and then draw a picture of what they think the Jabberwock would look like.

Then we turn our eye to similes and metaphors. In the poem, there is only one of these. Kids were tasked with finding it and then identifying it as either a simile or metaphor.

After doing that, they get to practice writing their own!

I chose water droplets templates so they would look like the liquid inside the Drink Me potion bottles. 

There's a Simile & Metaphors worksheet with teacups as well as the other in the PDF file since teacups are more versatile and independent from a bulletin board.  


Alice's Mystery Potion A small little imagination activity. Follow the prompts on the page to help us discover what this potion bottle does. This idea came from a librarian on a SRP fb page, "Imagine Your Virtual Story". (I can't find the original post to give proper credit!)


What's Your Wonderland Name A simple little game to decipher what your name would be in Wonderland. The first one is what is included in the PDF file, the second is a fun looking one I'll post to Pinterest 😁




And that's basically it for our Alice in Wonderland week at the library.
