My <head> tag appears before my <body> tag but it's still telling me it's not....What do I do?

I can't move on without getting this question correct...what do I do?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
 <html>
 <head>
   <body>
   </body>
   </head> 
</html>

Hi Isabella,

You're close, but the closing </head> needs to come right after the opening one and before the opening <body> tag. The complete enclosing <head></head> will contain information about the document, but is not part of the document, so the <body> cannot be enclosed in the <head>. :)

Keep Coding! :dizzy:
