Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong here? I'm getting the message 'Bummer! Don't forget a head tag'.

The task is to add the head and body tags. So far my workspace looks like this: <!DOCTYPE html> <html></html> <head></head> <body></body>

Hello Sarah,

What you have included is the document type declaration for the page but it sounds like the code challenge is also expecting you to have a beginning/ending html element with a nested beginning/ending head element.

Please visit this link for a quick reference. I hope this helps.
