small objects, BIG GRID?

My students have a minor problem that I can't seem to solve.

When they create small objects I'll have them set up Units to inches and the Grid to 4 or 8 squares per inch. That works out fine.

But when they switch to a different view (Top, Left, Front) the object initially appears tiny in a giant grid. It only take a couple seconds to zoom in, but doing that over & over again is a bit tedious.

What determines to overall size of the grid or how large the object will appear when you switch to a different view?
