math/measurement
By Heather

For teaching the first and second graders you could try introducing the concept with the story inch by inch By Leo Lionni. Then using inchworm shaped measuring tools ( cuisinaire makes them) to have students measure classroom objects. There is also a book called How big is a Foot? ( don't know the author.) This book introduces the need for a standard of measurement.
Good luck!
