CSS CSS Basics (2014) Basic Selectors Descendant Selectors

In CSS Basics challenge question 1 of 3, Create a descendant selector that targets the span inside the header element.

How do I do this?

I entered .header span { font-size: 25px; }

header and footer are both html elements and should not have a dot in front of them. Similar to how you did not put dots in front of span or p which are also html elements.

It should be:

header span{ font-size: 26px; }
