HTML HTML Basics Structuring Your Content Grouping Content Challenge

Grouping elements in self-contained content

Problem: I can't seem to find the right answer to this. I am sure it is very simple.

Challenge: Group each set of h3 and p elements using an element that describes self-contained pieces of content.

Error: Make sure you're placing the first set of h3 and p elements inside an element that describes self-contained pieces of content.
