Team Projects Alert:
If a team project has students in more than one grade, then
register the students as a project in the lowest grade (i.e.,
If you have a 6th grader and a 7th grader doing a team project,
you would choose the Grade 1 – 6 Projects link).
Step 2:
Does your project involve any of the following areas?
· Human Subjects (including surveys)
· Human or Animal Tissues
· Vertebrate Animals
· Potentially Hazardous Biological Agents
· Hazardous Chemicals, Activities or
Devices.
If

Step 3:
Is this project an individual or team project?
An Individual Project is defined as a project in which one
student works independently on one project. Any student in
grades 1 – 6 or equivalent is eligible. Note: Team projects can
not be changed to an individual project during a given research
year. For projects that continue beyond one year, individual
projects can be converted to a team project in the next year.

A Team
Project is defined as a project in which two or three students
worked together on one project. Any students in grades 1 – 6 or
equivalent are eligible. NOTE: Teams may not have start with

project to a team project or vice versa. For projects that
continue beyond one year, team members can change from year to
the next including converting the project to an individual
