It looks like a great unit for older kids, but for my 4th grade kiddos it's too advanced. I passed it on as a gift to a friend of mine who teaches at a higher level and she loved it :)

This appears to be a fairly thorough unit, but it does contain some puzzles and activites that are a bit confusing for the student user. Overall, though, a fun way to review pre-Algebra concepts.
