Yep, it's quite standard. But instead of writing:

you should put the tags inside head.php. I say it's better because what's inside head.php has no sense without the head tags, so they are kinda linked together. It's good practice to join things so linked into a single file without having to repeat open and close head tags for each page.

Actually, it's even good practice (and commonly used) to have header.php, body.php and footer.php files that has respectively:

header.php

...

body.php

...

footer.php
