Well as you know, the challenge wants you to "change the HTML paragraph tag to an h1 tag."

The HTML paragraph tag looks like -> <p>

The challenge simply wants you to change the p's to h1's. This way the color of the text will change to blue, as defined by the CSS.

An h1 tag is a heading tag. It makes text bigger and bolder than other text on the page. h1 tags should only appear once on a page, as they are typically a title or the largest part of your website. There are also h2, h3, h4, h5, and h6 tags, which go down in size as the number increases.

P tags are paragraph tags. You surround a paragraph of text inside them.

This challenge is asking you to change the p tags to h1 tags. You need an opening and closing tag for both a p and an h1, so all you need to change is the letter p in each tag to h1. I hope that helps!
