Free Downloadable Math Activity to Accompany Leo Lionni’s Inch by Inch

The clever inchworm in Inch by Inch can measure anything from a robin’s tail to a toucan’s beak, but when a hungry nightingale threatens to eat him for breakfast unless he can measure its song, the worm has to inch his way out of trouble!
After reading Leo Lionni’s classic Book of the Week with your class, download this free printable “Recording Nonstandard Measurements” activity. The inchworm can help! Cut him out and use him to measure objects in the classroom to help students connect to the story and make math even more fun.
