It could be either an adjectival phrase or an adverbial phrase, depending on whether the phrase modifies a noun or a verb. Lets start with a simple sentence: "The boy threw the ball." That doesn't tell us very much. It doesn't tell us which boy threw the ball or where he threw it. So now let's add the phrase "in the classroom." Let's say, for example, "The boy in the classroom threw the ball." Here the phrase modifies the noun 'boy.' It tells us which boy, and is therefore an adjectival phrase. But, "The boy threw the ball in the classroom," is different because the phrase modifies the verb 'threw' by telling us where the ball was thrown. Therefore it is an adverbial phrase.
