Developed under a constructivist approach, they emerge from the needs of the group and its previous knowledge.

Some projects have been put into practice or developed by the CEIP "Seseña y Benavente" with students of childhood and primary education coordinated by Dulce María Jiménez Requena, in charge of the work group. Some of the projects have been presented as Innovation Projects or Projects of "Madrid con la Ciencia" (Madrid with the Science) and have been award-winning or subsidized by the Comunidad de Madrid. From the Interpretation Centre Almagruz (Purullena-Guadix-Granada) we want to extend these initiatives to a more direct context in order to enrich the projects and communicate our researches and experiences with a major number of people.
