It's very difficult to teach good programming(*) practice via
projects but the place you are most likely to find that
approach is in the maker community, especially around
the Raspberry Pi SBC. Try following some of the Pi tutorials,
although many of them will require a Pi to get the most
out of them...

(*)But its very easy to teach bad programming practice
that way! A "good enough" approach is very tempting...
The problem is that "good enough" works for typical small
projects but comes badly unstuck when the projects
(and teams) get bigger.
