Hey Welcome Julius,

  1. You need to first create a new paragraph element using createElement method and store it in a newParagraph variable.
  2. In the second task, add a class name panel using className property.
  3. And finally, append newParagraph element to contentDiv.

Here's the final version of code for this challenge:

var contentDiv = document.getElementById('content');
var newParagraph = document.createElement('P');

newParagraph.className = "panel";
contentDiv.appendChild(newParagraph);

Hope this helps!
