<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">

Hi

You just missed the "section" tag, you needed to add it along side the "header" and "footer" tags.

Hope this helps: 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Title</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <section>
      <p>Section</p>
    </section>
    <header>
      <p>Header</p>
    </header>
    <footer>
      <p>Footer</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>
