  1. THIS VIDEO REVIEWS THE MOST IMPORTANT CONTENT COVERED IN CLASS TODAY!
  2. Objective:
    1. Students will learn how to add headings and lists to make their simple web pages slightly more complex.
  3. Warm-Up:
    1. In your Google Doc from Week 1, paste the following vocabulary under the heading of "Vocabulary."
      • Heading - A title or summary for a document or section of a document.
      • List - allows web developers to group a set of related items
    2. In that same Google Doc, paste the following code under the heading of "HTML Code."
    3. You should have already shared your Google Doc with aaron.smith@pgcps.org so no additional work needs to be done to hand this in.
    4. Warm-Ups are usually a 5 point Independent Work grade if a written response is expected, or a 5 point Assessment grade if the Warm-Up is a quiz. They are due at the start of class and not eligible for late submission or re-submission.
  4. Deadlines: (Content is subject to change due to various factors.)

    1. Warm-Ups: Due daily
    2. Week 2 Assignments Due 11-14 (2 days)
      1. Lesson 3: Headings and Lists
        1. Open your index.html file from Lesson 2 in Notepad. (If you right-click on the file, you can select the option to open it in a specific program.)
        2. All the work done today should be between the <body></body> tags. Don't work outside of them unless you are fixing a mistake from Lesson 2.
        3. If you copied the sample from Lesson 2, you already have a set of h1 tags for your page title, Change the title if you've thought of something better, but leave the tags as they are.
        4. Add a subheading or two to your page. These should NOT be h1, save that for your page title.
          1. The higher the number, the smaller the heading text.
          2. h4 will have the text be the same size as standard text, just bold. Use this sparingly. h2 and h3 are far more commonly used.
          3. A heading beginning with <h2> MUST end with </h2>. If the numbers don't match, the heading doesn't end.
        5. Add a list using the code shared for your notes today.
          1. Lists begin and end with ol or ul tags, for ordered (numbered) lists or unordered (bullet point) lists. These tags are only used once per list.
          2. Each line item of a list begins and ends with li (line item) tags. These are used regardless of if it's an ordered or unordered list.
          3. Don't use <li> where you're supposed to use <ol> or <ul>! This is the most common mistake made in this lesson.
          4. Every line item needs to end with </li>, and an ordered list needs to end with </ol> while an unordered list needs to end with </ul>! This is the 2nd most common mistake made in this lesson.
        6. Use the Print Screen (Often abbreviated to "Prnt Scrn," may  require the Function (Fn) button to be pressed depending on the keyboard) key to create a screenshot of your work as it is displayed in Firefox and in Notepad.
          1. This file will be saved in your "Screenshots" folder, which will be in your Pictures folder.
        7. Go to Canvas to hand this in.
          1. If you did Lesson 2, you'll have more than one screenshot in this folder! Make sure you're uploading the correct one!
        8. Grading Rubric
          1. 5 pts: Single screenshot shows both the index.html file displayed in NotePad and Firefox, nothing is cropped out of the shot.
          2. 3 pts: Code includes more than one heading size and at least one list (numbered or bullet points).
          3. 2 pts: All content is contained in tags and is between the <body></body> tags.
