HTML Championships review
- Here is the answer key for your reference if you’re stuck on anything
- It’s incredibly important to have the correct code because you will be referring back to it as you work on future projects. Successful coding isn’t about memorization; it’s about knowing where to get the right code and how to use it! This includes from previous projects you’ve worked on and/or finding online resources. On that note, we will spend time on creating an HTML Cheat Sheet so you have something accurate to refer to and to use as a helpful guide this year.
HTML Cheat Sheet
- We’re going to create one right now together as a class. Think about what should be on here. What are the basics? What are you still confused about?
- Period 2 HTML Cheat Sheet: https://codeshare.io/0XDdy
- Period 3 HTML Cheat Sheet: https://codeshare.io/7sJQh
- When we’re done with our cheat sheet: open Notepad++, go to File, New, and then copy and paste the cheat sheet into this new document. Save it as HTML Cheat Sheet. It will save as a plain text file so you can easily copy and paste the code from here into future projects.

First round this year of “How do you do that?
- Each of you found something you want to do and an example from a website. We will go over all of these as a class and find out if I can do it, if we’re going to learn it this year, or if someone in class knows how to do it.
