Measuring with Footsteps: Measure Lengths (Paperback)

Mr. Perkins is introducing his class to the concept of measurement. Readers follow along as the class learns that many objects can be used as a unit of measure, including their feet. The students measure a sheet of paper and the distance between desks using their feet. The classroom, the hallway, the class rug, and other objects are used to illustrate measurement by footstep. Later at home, a bed and couch are measured. This book can be paired with Handy Measuring (9781477722015) to provide the alternative point of view on the same topic.
