Hi Archergin,
You've typo'd the word 'android' and 'andorid' in a couple of places, that's what's causing the error. I've highlighted the lines you need to change below, just change it to android and you should be good to go!

Code:

<EditText android:id="@+id/myEditText"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  andorid:text="New To Do Item"
/>
<ListView
  android:id="@+id/myListView" 
  andorid:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>

Hope that helps!
