How Engineering is Elementary units link to the Virginia State Science StandardsEiE teaches engineering content and links to science content, but does not teach science content. This resource should be used to find which
EiE units we suggest will integrate best with the science topics taught in your state at each grade level. EiE also integrates with language arts,
math, and social studies content so it is important look comprehensively at curriculum within grade levels to determine the EiE unit that
integrates best.
