Each month we highlight a #MashoftheMonth, focussing 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 brand new 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.

This year International Women's Day falls on Tuesday 8th March with the theme #BreakTheBias. The day is about celebrating women and their achievements, whilst challenging stereotypes, bias, discrimination and perceptions. To mark the day, we have several resources and activities for you to use on Purple Mash, giving children a chance to explore and write about inspirational women from across the globe.

On March 3rd, it is World Wildlife Day, a time to celebrate and raise awareness of the world's wild animals and plants. The theme for World Wildlife Day 2022 is Recovering Key Species for Ecosystem Restoration, and the focus is on endangered flora and fauna and imagining and implementing solutions to help them survive and thrive. 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.

This February the Mash of the Month is 3D game design tool 2DIY 3D. Get creative and share how you have used it with us to be entered into the prize draw.
