Book Reviews of How Big Is a Foot?
Book Review: Helpful book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a kindergarten teacher. I read this book to my students to introduce to them how to compare standard and nonstandard units of measurement as well as to highlight the need for uniform measuring tools. How Big is a Foot? clearly illustrates the difference between the length of a person's foot and a foot long ruler. After reading this book we made tracings of our own feet and cut out foot long foot shapes to make an outline of our own beds that were 4 ft x 6 ft. That was a graphic illustration of the concepts covered in this book - the children loved it! I highly recommend How Big is a Foot? to primary teachers!
Summary of How Big Is a Foot?
The King wants to give the Queen something special for her birthday. The Queen has everything, everything except a bed. The trouble is that no one in the Kingdom knows the answer to a very important question: How Big is a Bed? because beds at the time had not yet been invented. The Queen's birthday is only a few days away. How can they figure out what size the bed should be?Literature Books
