The second day of class was totally CRAMMED. Since Mr. Arkin will be away on Thursday and Friday for the Jewish new year, we were taught two weeks worth of material in the length of one period. We started a glossary of computer terms, which included words like browser, HTML, and network. We copied an HTTP language script and learned about Start Tags, End Tags, containers, and elements. We also copied down a CSS and learned about how it controls the colour schemes of a web page. Notes were written defining HTML and CSS, and how HTML describes content, while CSS describes format.
At the end of class, Mr. Arkin taught us about the Jewish new year, and how to wish people a happy new year. He then informed us on the custom of eating something sweet so that our new years would also be sweet. He presented to us lollipops when we left his classroom.
For homework, I once again have to blog events of today's class. I also have to prepare for the Super-power Autobiography assignment, where I will design a web page with valid HTML and CSS with a partner.
