classroom projects
Student group work
Classroom projects are assignments that extend beyond routine homework, typically requiring students to research, create, or build something over days or weeks.
They often involve hands-on work—constructing models, preparing presentations, or conducting experiments: We're building a volcano for our classroom project.
The term sometimes carries connotations of last-minute parental involvement and craft-store runs.
