How to make a chicken coop??? help!?

Ok so im 12 and my sister is 10 and we want to build a chicken coop. Of course with the help of our dad. keep in mind we don't have a lot of money. Is there any cheap ways to make one? What materials do wee need? There are no predators around except for maybe a coyote but would be rare. Oh maybe a rattle snake. I have done lots of searching on the web so i dont need you to tell me to do that. i just want to know i cheap design that you have or someone esle has.

4. Chicken wire BUT if bears are around the only thing that will keep them out is an electric fence. If there are bears and you don't have an electric fence then you are wasting your time and the lives of your chickens.
5. Just buy some wood and chicken wire. Look on craigslist for coops for sale. Look on youtube. I'm trying to convince my dad to build a chicken coop. Good Luck.
