Children will learn about repetition and looping by creating dances with steps that repeat.

• Use larger visuals and numerals for easier grasping and visibility.
• Attach velcro to movement cards and allow children to stick them to carpet or velcro board so the cards don’t move around.
• Provide movement cards that all kids can participate in. Movements might be whole body, hand movements, or even facial movements.

• Reduce the numerals represented (start with 2-3)
• Model actions and encourage children to repeat actions without requiring that they complete the action a certain number of times. Focus on repetition, which is a precursor to looping.
