Rocket and Raven grab jump ropes. Rocket can jump six times. Raven can jump nine times.
"Let's each do four rounds!" Rocket says. Raven smiles. "What do you notice about rounds?" she asks. "Each round is a loop."
Nova blinks. "One loop today might never stop," she says. "Watch for it."
Let's count the jumps. Then we'll hunt for the forever loop.
Rocket can jump 6 times before tripping. Raven can jump 9 times. If they each do REPEAT 4 TIMES of their best round, count the jumps.
Each sentence is doing a loop. Write what is repeating.
One of these loops will run FOREVER and never stop. Circle which one.
(A) REPEAT 10 TIMES:
clap
(B) REPEAT UNTIL it is sunny:
smile
(it has been sunny all morning)
(C) REPEAT UNTIL pigs can fly:
wait A loop can hold more than one step. To count, look at one lap first.
Then count the steps in one lap, and add them up for every lap.
REPEAT 4 TIMES:
hop
