Lesson 1 — for + range: Let the Computer Repeat for Us

Level: Apprentice — roughly Grade 7 / ages 12–13 Duration: 25–30 minutes Format: Write real Python in the browser (runs instantly, nothing to install) Concept: for + range = command once, repeat any number of times — the patterns from last unit, now automated

Learning Objective

Kids write for i in range(n), understand that i changes each round, and use range(1, n+1) to count from 1.

Do It Together (Parent-Child Co-participation)

Have your child change the loop to print 100 rounds and run it — then chat about which chores at home or at your work repeat so much you wish you had a loop.
