A First Web Page

HTML is tags that paint a page. Open the HTML editor and make a title.

A page, not a printout

HTML uses tags to describe a page. The browser draws it. That is a different editor from Try Python: Try HTML.

A tiny page

<h1>Hello</h1>
<p>This is my first page.</p>
<ul>
  <li>Cats</li>
  <li>Foxes</li>
</ul>

Tags come in pairs

TagMeaning
<h1></h1>biggest heading
<p></p>a paragraph
<ul> and <li>a list and an item

Open Try HTML, paste the example, and watch the right side paint a page. Python will not do that.

Real life

A poster on the classroom door.

A heading, a sentence, a list of what to bring. HTML is the poster. The browser is the door.

Club poster

<h1>Chess club</h1>
<p>Friday, after school.</p>
<ul>
  <li>Board</li>
  <li>Snack</li>
</ul>

Change one word. Run it. That is how this idea shows up outside the lesson.

Common questions about this page.

What is StudyGrid Kids?

StudyGrid Kids is a free coding path for children: Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced. Lessons use Python in the browser. No account and no install.

Should I run a first web page examples locally for better learning?

Yes. Use the browser editor on StudyGrid for a quick check, then Download the example and run it on your computer. Local runs show real errors and the real toolchain, which is one of the fastest ways to learn a first web page in this Kids Coding Python lesson (A First Web Page).

Which kids level should we start with?

Start at Basic if the child has never written code. Choose Intermediate if they can print, use variables, and write a simple if. Choose Advanced if they already use loops and lists.

Do kids need an account or an app?

No. Kids pages are public. Code runs in the Try Python editor at /try. We do not ask children for a name or an email.

What language do kids learn?

Python, with a first HTML page in Intermediate and Advanced. After Advanced, the main Python tutorial is the next step.

Is the kids coding track free?

Yes. The Kids home, the three levels, and the Python editor on StudyGrid (studygrid.in) are free.
