# --description--

The `thead` and `tbody` elements are used to indicate which portion of your table is the header, and which portion contains the primary data or content.

Add a `thead` and `tbody` to your first `table`, below the `caption` element.

# --hints--

Your first `table` element should have a `thead` element.

```js
const table = document.querySelectorAll('table')?.[0];
assert.isNotNull(table?.querySelector('thead'));
```

Your first `table` element should have a `tbody` element.

```js
const table = document.querySelectorAll('table')?.[0];
const tbody = table?.querySelector('tbody');
assert.isNotNull(tbody);
```

Your `thead` element should be immediately below your `caption` element.

```js
assert.strictEqual(
  document.querySelector('caption')?.nextElementSibling?.localName,
  'thead'
);
```

Your `tbody` element should be immediately below your `thead` element.

```js
assert.strictEqual(
  document.querySelector('thead')?.nextElementSibling?.localName,
  'tbody'
);
```
