I'm borrowing/taking my daughter's Rebel T7. I was going through tutorial and looking at shooting options and trying to set up continuous shooting. My camera only gives three shooting options - single, single on timer and continuous on timer. Everything I see/read says there should be a 4th option of continuous shooting. Any idea as to what my issue is here? Thank you!

If the camera is set to Full Automatic many shooting options are NOT AVAIABLE. You must exit Full Automatic Mode (Basic Zone) and move to the (Creative Zone) M, Av, Tv & P Modes for those options to be available.

Some options only show up if you are in one of the "creative" modes:PAS or M

Download the manual as it has over 300 pages of helpful information. I have used continuous shooting for flying sandhill cranes.
