In the century following the seminal works of Kilpatrick (1918) and Freinet (1976), pedagogical actions in dialogue with the concepts of 'project work' and 'school newspaper' remain fundamental.
From this perspective, this paper presents the results of a research based on the following question: What opinions do 2nd cycle of basic education students have about the experience of creating a school newspaper? An experience that involved two classes of 5th grade and one of 6th grade, in the school year 2020/21, in a private Portuguese school.
As main results we highlight, on the one hand, the consensual recognition of 'project-based teaching' as a relevant practice for students' learning and, also, for the development of social interaction skills; and, on the other hand, the justified acknowledgment of the potential of such curricular option in the promotion of children and young people's autonomy and self-determination.
