CSS Basics offers a course at the end which covers Media Queries but if you have a Treehouse Pro account give this a try. http://teamtreehouse.com/library/media-queries

This is one of those things where you really have to plan ahead. If you want to start out designing for smaller devices, then I really encourage taking the responsive layout course for ideas on how to design first for those devices and then modify your layout for larger devices. There are some external website resources that Nick Pettit provides that will further expand on how to go about doing this (like flexbox). I hope this helps. Edit - CSS Basics covers media queries but from what I would call a large device point-of-view. If you want mobile, the responsive layout course is better suited in my view.
