i don't understand how to write the class attribute or where to place it in this quiz.

index.html 
<body>
  <h1>First Day of School</h1>

  <form>

    <div>
      <div class-"bucket">
        <div class="choice-bucket">
             <div class="favorite_stuff">
      <h4>Favorite Foods?</h4>
      <input name="food[]">
      <input name="food[]">
      <input name="food[]">
      <input name="food[]">
    </div>

    <div>
      <div class-"bucket">
      <div class="choice-bucket">
      <div class="favorite_stuff">

As they explained in the challenge, attributes must be inside the start tag, and are of the form name="value":

    <div class="favorite_stuff">
      <h4>Favorite Foods?</h4>
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
    </div>

    <div class="favorite_stuff">
      <h4>Favorite Animals?</h4>
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
    </div>

For class attributes the name is class, and the value is whatever they tell you to make it. So in the above html, one of the attributes you were to add is class="favorite_food". The other is type="text".

I am not sure where all of the extraneous code came from in your file. I just did the quiz challenge and here is what passed for me:

<body>
  <h1>First Day of School</h1>

  <form>

    <div class="favorite_stuff">
      <h4>Favorite Foods?</h4>
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
      <input name="food[]" type="text">
    </div>

    <div class="favorite_stuff">
      <h4>Favorite Animals?</h4>
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
      <input name="animal[]" type="text">
    </div>

  </form>

</body>

The challenge was pretty self-explanatory. I hope this helps!
