CHALLENGE: WRITE A POEM
Learning Target: My learning target is to use basic HTML code correctly. I will know that I have met my learning target if I am able to translate stanzas of a song into HTML code.
The Reckless and the Brave
All Time Low
Long live the reckless and the brave
I don't think I want to be saved
My song has not been sung
So long live us
Looking out at a town called Surburbia
Everybody's fighting to fit in
Little rats running mazes, having babies
It's a vicious little world tat we live in
Looking back at a life on the other side
I realize that I didn't fit in
Didn't hate it but didn't quite relate it
To my precious little world
So long live the reckless and the brave
I don't think I want to be saved
My song has not been sung
CHALLENGE: TEXT TAGS
How do I enhance text using HTML code?
Learning Target: My learning target is to understand HTML code rules. I will know that I have met my learning target if I am able to identify HTML tags that will bold and italicize text. |
Nobody’s born smart. We all start at 0. Can’t talk, can’t walk, certainly can’t do algebra.
Adding, reading, writing, riding a bike. Nobody’s good at anything at first.
There was a time when Einstein couldn’t count to 10.
And Shakespeare had to learn his ABCs just like the rest of us.
Thankfully, we are born to learn.
Slowly. Surely. You stumble, slip, crawl, fall and fail and fall.
Frustrating. Confusing. Trying. Struggling.
Until one day, you walk.
One foot in front of the other. One idea on top of the next.
Each wrong answer making your brain a little bit stronger.
Failing is just another word for growing. And you keep going.
This. is. learning.
It’s not that you don’t get it.
You just don’t get it, yet.
Because the most beautiful, complex concepts in the whole universe
are built on basic ideas that anyone, anywhere can understand.
Whoever you are, wherever you are.
You only have to know one thing:
You can learn anything.
