This is one of those challenges that allows you to continue before it should.

For the first task you are to place the ul, h1 and p elements at the top of the page inside an element that represents a group of introductory content. <header> is the correct choice but should go around the existing ul, h1 and p elements.

 <header>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
    </ul>
    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
    <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>
 </header>

For the second task you are to place the paragraphs at the bottom of the page inside an element that typically contains information about the site, copyright data or related links. You have this correct.

<footer>
    <p>&copy; 2017 My Portfolio</p>
    <p>Follow me on <a href="#">Twitter</a>, <a href="#">Instagram</a> and <a href="#">Dribbble</a></p>
</footer>

For the third task place the content between the header and footer (h2, p and ul) inside an element that represents standalone sections of content. <section> is the correct choice but where you placed the opening tag is incorrect. It should be obvious after completing tasks 1 and 2. You should be able to get it from here.
