Task 1 said "Place the ul, h1 and p elements at the top of the page inside...", but the header here is only enclosing the ul. The h1 and p should also be inside it.

Then for task 3, they say "Place the content between the header and footer (h2, p and ul) inside...", so neither the header or footer are included, and specifically only the h2, p and ul are.

Also, as a general rule, a tag that starts inside another element must also end inside that same element. Tags can never "overlap".
