Lesson 5: The Teleporter (Links/Anchors)

Goal: Connecting to other pages. ESL Vocab: Link, Source, Destination, Click, Anchor.

  • Concept: The <a> tag stands for Anchor. It hooks your page to another page. It needs an attribute called href (Hypertext Reference) which is the address.
  • The Syntax: <a href="https://www.google.com">Click here to go to Google</a>
  • Hands-on Practice:
    1. Add a sentence at the bottom of your page: “Learn more about my game.”
    2. Wrap the words “Learn more” in an <a> tag.
    3. Link it to the official website of the video game or Wikipedia.
