What is Number Chase?

Number Chase is an untimed board game exercising counting, exact addition, and operations using the base-ten structure of the number system.  It uses a game board, a deck of 16 cards, erasable colored markers, a scoring card, and an answer board.  For the first deck, the game board presents 5 rows filled by the numbers 1-50, and the cards present simple addition problems presented as one array of black dots and one array of pink dots (Fig. 3a). In later decks, the pink dots will be replaced by a pink number.
