Understanding HTML

This Computing video introduces teachers to the basics of HTML (HyperText Markup Language), equipping them with the knowledge to guide Year 4 children in exploring how web pages are structured and displayed. It covers what HTML is and its role in web development, how HTML tags create and organise web content and practical steps for using browser tools to inspect code.

Teachers are supported in simplifying technical concepts and gaining the confidence to help the children explore the fundamentals of web development.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Computing – Teacher coding skills videos, a comprehensive collection that explains and demonstrates key programming concepts, helping teachers to deliver the computing curriculum with clarity and confidence.
