The pupils showed an interest in researching or thinking of their own ideas for how they would design their money box. The pupils worked together in pairs or independently as they talked about what shape it was going to be such as a square or rectangle and then made a list of what tools or equipment they would need to construct the body as one pupil wrote down; "a saw, drill and sandpaper", as well as the technical components for example; how many slots their money box would have for the different coins, the size of the coins and how the coins were going to travel like "on a slop'" or "I want to make a hole at the top to put my coins in".
The pupil explained what the tools would be used for "a saw to cut the wood into four pieces and then three long pieces to go next to each other in the centre, sandpaper to smooth the sides, a drill to make the holes for each money slot".
