some thing handy by: Anonymous
I Think the best projects for begainers are stuff that is useful and simple.Like a tool box to hold their tools.Maybe two metal saw horses to lay some thing across as a portable welding table.These are things that will come in handy
for the rest of thier lifes even if they do not become welder as a job.A I beleive it is best to start at the begaining.Torch welding and brazeing,arc,mig,and tig,.Good luck to you teacher and your classes.

Dear I think the most suitable and valuable project is weld decay in stainless steel causes and their remedies.
This project will help you and your student to get some good knowledge of welding metallurgy and process.

best project for 13yr olds by: phil
One of the best welding activities for year 9 (western australia) students is a metal dice. cut 1.2 or 1.6mm ms plate into 50mm strips and students mark out the 6 sides, drill the holes with about 8mm drill and cut out the sides on bench sheers. then fusion the dice together. great project and after touch up with a file or grinder, a coat of paint looks great!
I have made a jig up to tack it together, bit of 50mm angle iron about 100mm long with a couple of clamps lets the kids get a perfect 90 on each join
