  • Alice in Wonderland Reasoning
    GEOMETRY Name: ________________________ Reasoning Activity – CHP. 2 Hour: _________ REASONING in LITERATURE Watch a short video clip from “Alice in Wonderland” : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oupIOmnLJs&feature=player_embedded • Watch for “awkward sayings”, instances of deductive/inductive reasoning, uses of Law of Detachment, or Law of Syllogism. Consider the following passage from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter VII, “A Mad Tea Party.” "Then you should say what you mean." the March Hare went on. "I do," Alice hastily replied; "at least -- at least I mean what I say -- that's the same thing, you know." "Not the same thing a bit!" said the Hatter, "Why, you might just as well say that 'I see what I eat' is the same thing as 'I eat what I see'!" "You might just as well say," added the March Hare, "that 'I like what I get' is the same thing as 'I get what I like'!" "You might just as well say," added the Dormouse, who seemed to be talking in his sleep, "that 'I breathe when I sleep' is the same thing as 'I sleep when I breathe'!" "It is the same thing with you," said the Hatter, and here the conversation dropped, and the party sat silent for a minute. Lewis Carroll, the author of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, was a mathematics teacher who had fun playing around with logic. In this activity, you’ll investigate some basic ideas from logic and perhaps have some fun too. 1. Express each of the following statements from the Mad Tea Party as a CONDITIONAL in “if … then” form, CONVERSE, INVERSE and CONTRA POSTIVE.

  • Alice in Wonderland Glossary of Terms for Madge Miller’S Adaptation from Lewis Carroll
    Alice in Wonderland Glossary of Terms for Madge Miller’s adaptation from Lewis Carroll Lewis Carroll’s novella Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, on which Madge Miller’s play is based, begins not with Alice sitting on the grass with her sister, but with the following poem, which recalls the “golden afternoon” when Carroll first began telling the story of Alice’s adventures underground to the three Liddell sisters, Lorina (aged 13), Alice (aged 10), and Edith (aged 8). The date was Friday, July 4th, 1862. W.H. Auden once declared that July 4th, 1862 was “as memorable a day in the history of literature as it is in American history.”1 This quote and, indeed, much of the information in this glossary is culled from The Annotated Alice, a volume of Carroll’s work superbly annotated by Martin Gardner, from which I will be citing frequently. The poem which begins Alice’s Adventures reads as follows: All in the golden afternoon Full leisurely we glide; For both our oars, with little skill, By little arms are plied, While little hands make vain pretence Our wanderings to guide. Ah, cruel Three! In such an hour, Beneath such dreamy weather, To beg a tale of breath too weak To stir the tiniest feather! Yet what can one poor voice avail Against three tongues together? Imperious Prima flashes forth Her edict to “begin it”: In gentler tones Secunda hopes “There will be nonsense in it!” While Tertia interrupts the tale Not more than once a minute. Anon, to sudden silence won, In fancy they pursue The dream-child moving through a land Of wonders wild and new, In friendly chat with bird or beast— And half believe it true.

Kelly [email protected] 1 Table of Contents 3 Letter to Educators 4-6 Biographical Information about Lewis Carroll 7 The “Real” Alice in Wonderland, Alice Liddel 8-10 Summary of the story “Alice in Wonderland” 11-12 State Street Ballet of Santa Barbara Ballet Information 13-14 “Jabberwocky” Poem and Activities 15-16 Characters in Alice in Wonderland Critical thinking about the symbolism of the characters 17-18 Poetry in Motion 19-20 “White Rabbit” by Jefferson Airplane, Woodstock, 1969 A critical thinking exercise for older students 21 Bibliography 2 Dear Educators, State Street Ballet of Santa Barbara’s version of Alice in Wonderland is one of the most student friendly ballets I’ve witnessed. It is appropriate for very young students who will take the story literally. It is also appropriate for older students who may want to delve into the historical context, innuendo, and figurative nature of Alice in Wonderland. The costumes and choreography tell a wordless story so well that students who have never seen ballet will comprehend what the dancers are trying to convey. I’ve titled this Study Guide as “Poetry in Motion” because I found that movement can tell a story, or help interpret a poem, so the meaning of the writing is understandable for even the youngest student. This study guide has background information, and a variety of points-of-view that can appeal to young students as well as adults.

    Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland Chapter 7 ~ Page 1 © Gay Miller ~ Created by Gay Miller CHAPTER VII. A Mad Tea-Party There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head. 'Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse,' thought Alice; 'only, as it's asleep, I suppose it doesn't mind.' The table was a large one, but the three were all crowded together at one corner of it: 'No room! No room!' they cried out when they saw Alice coming. 'There's plenty of room!' said Alice indignantly, and she sat down in a large arm-chair at one end of the table. 'Have some wine,' the March Hare said in an encouraging tone. Alice looked all round the table, but there was nothing on it but tea. 'I don't see any wine,' she remarked. 'There isn't any,' said the March Hare. 'Then it wasn't very civil of you to offer it,' said Alice angrily. 'It wasn't very civil of you to sit down without being invited,' said the March Hare. 'I didn't know it was your table,' said Alice; 'it's laid for a great many more than three.' 'Your hair wants cutting,' said the Hatter. He had been looking at Alice for some time with great curiosity, and this was his first speech.
