pareja (escuela) - Trabajar en parejas

[leo3749]

Can I say to work in couples in the same way as when I say to work in pairs?
Contexto: Trabajar en parejas para una actividad en clase.

Thanks to both of you!

To me, the word "couples" is usually only used for people who are romantically involved. Best to stick to "pairs" in the classroom, I think.

I agree with Alisterio. I would say it:
Work in pairs
Work with a partner
