I don't understand why I am not getting credit for #5 of 6 on this challenge.

I was asked to nest the ordered list into the "Shapes" item...I did this.

<ul> 
  <li>Shapes</li> 
   <ol>
<li> Stop</li>
<li> Drop</li>
<li> Roll</li>
    </ol>
  <li>Colors</li> 
</ul>

I do not understand why it isn't right therefore I cannot correct it. Please help.

Nancy Melucci, you need your ol to be inside of your "Shapes" li.

<li>Shapes
    <ol></ol>
</li>

<ul> 
   <li>Shapes
  <ol>
  <li>Stop</li>
  <li>Drop</li>
  <li>Roll</li>

    </ol>
  </li>
  <li>Colors</li> 

    </ul>
    ```
this is the correct way to nest it.

You should leave the stop, drop, roll list where it was at above the unordered list. You're not supposed to nest that list inside the "Shapes" list item.

You should create a new ordered list to nest inside the "Shapes" list item. It should come after the word "Shapes" and before the closing </li>
