Purple Mash pictogram tool 2Count is a versatile tool that lets you create pictograms to represent all kinds of items, from favourite colours to foods eaten and everything in between, in just a few clicks.

It's that time of year when children in all year groups will be practicing and revising their key skills, ready for SATs, the Multiplication Tables Check or end of year assessments.  We've got lots of resources on Purple Mash to help with the key skills across reading, writing, SPaG and maths.

Each month we highlight a different tool or application within Purple Mash and how it can be used within the classroom to support learning across the curriculum. We call this the Mash of the Month, this month it's our Multiplication Tables Check. During the month, if you share how you have used the #MashoftheMonth, you will then be entered into a draw to win a 2Simple Goody Bag!
