Why is this error happening? (ImportError: No module named 'Monster'. )

I wrote the code exactly like Kenneth:

class Monster:
  color = "yellow"
  hit_points = 1
  weapon = "wand"

Then I typed "from monster import Monster" in the python shell, and this error keeps appearing:

ImportError: No module named 'Monster'.
