Learning to Program with Alice, 3rd Ed. is an excellent resource. I'm
hoping they are coming out with 4th Ed. soon... It provides good
instruction on how to program using Alice and has many opportunities for
practice and understanding. Along with the tutorials provided on Duke's
website, I've managed to fill 3/4 of the year so far. 

I am reviewing several books for the Alice 3, but not found one I like for
everything. May need to combine with a JAVA programming text to fill an
entire year.
