        self.slots.append(item)

The sorting should be added right after the "super" call. Give it a try, and post your code if you still have trouble.

You won't need "super" for the sorting. And the name of the thing being sorted is not "list" but "self.slots".

If that resolves the issue, you can mark a question solved by choosing a "best answer".
Happy coding!
