Target HTML Element means to use the tag’s name.
For example: If you want to Target Button elements, you know that

<button>

is the tag for the Buttons, then it’s name element is button.
To catch it with JQuery, yo must use the $.
To sum up, you can get the button element with JQuery like this:
$("button").
Then, you can use several functions that JQuery let you use for that element…
$("button").nameOfTheFunction();

Have done that and I still can’t pass the stage please help with the code

Remember to set your code inside the script, document ready function.

If you write the following line, you’ll pass the test:

$(“button”).addClass(“animated bounce”);

Also, notice the addClass function, and it’s C set on Capital Letter.
