⭐ Embark on an engaging reading journey with this 4th and 5th-grade Summarizing Stories in Wonderland Reading Escape Room & Webscape™️. Your students will practice summarizing stories as they embark on a quest to the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, solving riddles, unlocking doors, playing croquet against the queen, and tracking down the elusive Cheshire Cat.

Students read prompts and answer reading comprehension questions based on summarizing stories standards. Their answers will help reveal the secret codes that will solve each challenge. As they progress through their adventure, students will collect items that reveal the tea party’s location, culminating in the much-coveted official invitation certificate.

☕ This Wonderland reading comprehension review escape room comes in the following printable and digital formats:

• Webscape™ Format – This web-based format provides the most interactive and immersive experience possible. It is self-directed, self-correcting, and contains audio. You can check out my video overview here. You won’t believe how engaging this format is until you try it!
