This App contains five SMILE mathematics computer games: MiniMax, Box, Matching Fractions,
Angle, and Rhino. These games are designed to help build skills in ordering numbers, choosing
equivalent fractions, estimating and drawing angles, and choosing coordinates to find a missing
Rhino — reinforcing skills in Number and Operations, Geometry, and Measurement. The App was
programmed by Andreas Ess and Clement Vasseur.
