t2 I 107 Repetition in Scratch Activity Sheet
REPEAT can be used to tell the computer to run the same commands again and again. It saves
time as the programmer only has to type the commands once.
The computer can be told how many times to run the repeated commands.
The same two commands are repeated 4 times. Using repetition would be better.
In Scratch, the repeat block needs to be wrapped around the commands to be repeated.
Challenge
Can you use repeat to write instructions for scratch to draw a triangle or a hexagon? How
would a rectangle be different? What about a circle?
