A short browser game practices this lesson with new examples. Students play on a computer or tablet, with no account and nothing to install. Use it with the lesson or instead of the paper activity.
Play itWhat does this lesson cover?
Students can memorize tags and still not know when to use each one. This lesson starts with plain notes and asks what job each line has, so students choose each tag for a reason. When they fix a page, they explain why the new tag fits.
The lab on Day 2 has an online version that uses Web Lab, our online game, in the Page Order level. It practices fixing headings, lists, bold and italic words and centered text until each page matches its target. Every online version comes with a paper version, so no internet is needed. Our game is free, with no accounts or sign-ins.
Page Order
Students fix four pages with the wrong tags and explain each fix, on paper or in the Web Lab.
