A research project is a way to learn more about a topic by asking questions and finding answers. It usually starts with a question, like 'What do plants need to grow?' Then, you gather information by reading books, watching videos, or even doing experiments. For example, if you wanted to know how plants grow, you might water some seeds and watch how they change over time. At the end, you share what you learned with others, like in a presentation or a poster.
