Your CSS Questions
- In groups of 2 at your tables, you will create 2 lists:
- The CSS you know well and feel comfortable with
- The CSS you find confusing and feel less comfortable with
- We will add our lists to this Google Doc when you’re done
- You will try to explain and find answers to these CSS questions when we get back together as a group. For example, maybe someone knows how to add a background image and can explain that to you while you can explain to that person how to add a Google Font.
- Challenge questions: Why is the image on today’s class post funny? How could the issue be fixed (there is more than one answer to this)?
Self-guided reviews

- Box model
- Positioning
- Floats
- Classes, IDs, and div tags
- Display, block, inline, inline-block
- Selectors, properties, and values
