All separate parts of a whole

Currently your body block sits inside your head block.
The head open and close tags form the HEAD of your markup, and likewise the body open and close tags form the BODY of your html markup. Hence they cannot be placed within each other. <head></head> <body</body>
Place them as blocks (a head block, then a body block). You will soon see the block concept being applied to other elements such as a section or div which reside inside a body block.
Hope this helps .
