school project

Homework with posterboard

A school project is an assignment requiring students to research, create, or demonstrate something over an extended period, typically outside regular classwork.

Projects often involve posters, models, presentations, or reports: My daughter's school project on volcanoes is due Friday.

The phrase sometimes implies parental involvement—or outright completion by parents: That diorama looks suspiciously professional for a third-grader's school project.
