Three things that went well: 1 thing that went very well was we had a good lot of fries at the start but until a lot of people started lining up we were about to sell out so we didn't use all the cups but we did sell out of fries. Another strength was that everyone that had our fries came back and said our fries were really good, so we had good feedback from people that bought our fries.

A couple things that didn't work well was it was quite squashy where we had to squash in where all the plug cables were and the group next to us plugged keeped on coming out and we had to reset the whole plug cable. So we thought it would turn the deep fryer of but lucky it didn't. 

Three changes that could improve

 Chapter 66 – Inan

Father stands in his night robes, scanning a faded map. No sign of hatred. Not

even a hint of disgust.

For him, carving MAGGOT into a girl’s back is just another day’s work.

…

In that instant it hits me: Zulaikha’s death. Zélie’s screams. They don’t mean a

thing to him. Because they’re maji, they’re nothing.

This could be compared to / A message I take from this scene is

Think about how the word ‘maggot’ is used. This is a slur. Do we have these in real life?

This could be compared to something into real life as selfish and the work he does for them, like in real life the father does a lot for them and the family of zulaikhas death isn't meaning nothing.

• Post a photo of your groups section of the machine
• List the material used
• Explain the simple machines that make up the components of the Rube Goldberg

1.  

2. Paper, roll, tape, cup, Lego

3. The Rube Goldberg, using levers, rolling balls, tubes, rolling ramps.

  Chapter 59-Zelie

“How will me coming back to Lagos solve any of that?” I ask. “As we speak,

your father calls for my head!”

“My father’s scared.” Inan shakes his head. “He’s misguided, but his fear is

justified. All the monarchy’s ever seen is the destruction maji can bring.

They’ve never experienced anything like this.” He gestures to the camp, face

alight with so much hope his smile practically glows in the darkness. “Zulaikha

created this in one moon, and there are already more diviners in Lagos than

anywhere else in Orïsha. Just imagine what we could accomplish with the

resources of the monarchy behind us.”

This could be compared to / A message I take from this scene is

It could be related to something like inan and father that the fathers scared, and they need help but if this was related to something in real life i could say my father needs help because of what there facing, and what could happen is something they haven't experienced.

 Chapter 56 – Zélie

We zip through the crowd while celebrants thrust and shimmy by our sides.

Though part of me wants to cry, I crane my neck to take in the crowd, craving

their joy, their life.

The children of Orïsha dance like there’s no tomorrow, each step praising the

gods. Their mouths glorify the rapture of liberation, their hearts sing the

Yoruba songs of freedom. My ears dance at the words of my language, words I

once thought I’d never hear outside my head. They seem to light up the air

with their delight.

It’s like the whole world can breathe again.

This could be compared to / A message I take from this scene is

The part i could compare this to real life is when it is different country's language week, and how she using her language and it could be a celebration of there language, and songs of what country they're from and what they like to hear. It comes to mind when they're using there voice as how there language could be important and the ways she singing the song. This is connected to the book because in different country's there are different cultures languages that pops up in the year like Samoan, Maori, Tongan.

 “Your people, your guards. They’re nothing more than killers, rapists and

thieves. The only difference between them and criminals is the uniforms they

wear.”

This could be compared to / A message I take from this scene is

Sometimes there are cops that kill innocent people who the cops thinks are criminals but the cops are doing something just as bad.

“I won’t let your father get away with what he’s done. I won’t let your

ignorance silence my pain”

With that, she disappears. Her quiet footsteps fade into the silence.

In that moment I realise how wrong I’ve truly been.

It doesn’t matter if I’m in her head.

I’ll never understand her pain.

This could be compared to / A message I take from this scene is

Hate towards the father, and what hes done has, but in the real world i would be feeling pain with what she did in this problem, if this had to relate to something in real life it could be that there father done something very bad and wrong that made them upset and no forgivness.

Now it takes everything to gain control. No matter how hard I fight, the risk of

feeling Zélie’s pain lingers. A constant and growing threat.

This could be compared to / A message I take from this scene is

(Why is thinking about the truth a “threat”?)

Inan trying to get in control of how he feels, but from the truth she feels like she doesn't belong with the magic and getting told the truth hurts
