How to create a HTML element and set something in it?

Here is my code which works well:

var el = "<span class='notification_numb'>" + notif_num + "</span>";

$("#header .header_point").prepend(el);

Now I want to make that element another way. Here is my new code:

var el = $('<span />').addClass('notification_numb').html(notif_num);

$("#header .header_point").prepend(el);

But it doesn't work, actually that span will not be created. any idea what's wrong?
