The Mash of the Month for April is Purple Chip, our app which allows students to control an external device using code created in Purple Mash's 2Code Purple Chip tool.

In the lead up to Easter, use our cracking resources to get your children egg-cited about this special time of year.

Each month we highlight a #MashoftheMonth, focusing on a tool or application within Purple Mash and how it can be used within the classroom to support learning across the curriculum. During the month, if you share how you have used #MashoftheMonth, you will then be entered into a draw to win a 2Simple Goody Bag!

Our #MashOfTheMonth for March is a helpful application within Purple Mash – 2Challenge. Designed for teacher use, 2Challenge is a great quick-start tool for supporting learning engagement, promoting challenge, inspiring children and getting them thinking.

On March 3rd, it is World Wildlife Day, a time to celebrate and raise awareness of the world’s wild animals and plants.

There’s a wide range of educational resources available within Purple Mash that support the theme that you can use to celebrate World Wildlife Day.
