  1. A primary school writing desk is to be designed to the following specifications:

                height at front  –  660;
                height at back – 700;
                length             – 600;
                width               – 450.
                (All dimensions are in millimetres)

    The tap is 20 mm thick solid wood.  It has a 6 x 6 mm groove; 20 mm from the back edge to hold pens and pencils.  The desk has an open storage space at the front, 100 mm deep beneath the top.

    Question 1

    Make two preliminary freehand pictorial sketches each for a different design of the
    writing desk

OBSERVATION

Few candidates were able to draw two different sketches of the writing desk.

However, many candidates drew:

-           with straight edge;
-           without the pencil/pen groove;
-           without inclination of the top piece.

Candidates’ drawing was to show:

-           inclination of the top piece;
-           the pencil/pen groove.
