Insert ng-content select dynamically

Question

Simply put, I want to pass in the select value into the component for ng-content as an input. It should look somewhat like this:

parent:

<child-component [selectedValue]="['[selectedHtml1]','[selectedHtml2]']">
  <div selectedHtml1>I'm inside!!</div>
  <div selectedHtml2>I'm inside also!!</div>
</child-component>

child-html:

<ng-content *ngFor="let value of selectedValue" select="{{value}}">

child-ts:

@Input() selectedValue: string[];

but when I do this I get an error saying

compiler.js:2175 Uncaught Error: Template parse errors:
Can't bind to 'select' since it isn't a known property of 'ng-content'.
1. If 'select' is an Angular directive, then add 'CommonModule' to the '@NgModule.imports' of this component.
2. To allow any property add 'NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA' to the '@NgModule.schemas' of this component. ("

  </div>

Doing it with normal transclusion syntax works, so why doesn't this?

In your html

<ng-content #select="{{selectedValue}}">

and in .ts

@ViewChild(select)
