At 2Simple we want to help by raising awareness of International Literacy Day and the importance of young people gaining those valuable literacy skills that are needed throughout life.

Here we look at just some of the resources available within Purple Mash that can help young learners engage with literacy and enjoy it for life.

Check out what 2Simple has to offer to complement and add to your English lessons, including a whole-school Spelling Scheme of Work, Guided Reading resources and our English Leader's Toolkit.

Cheryl Allibone, Year 2 Standards Lead and School Writing Advocate at St Nicholas Priory CE VC Primary School in Great Yarmouth, shares how she is using Serial Mash to encourage children to continue to read over the summer holiday.

The Mash of the Month for June is Serial Mash, our online library for reading and comprehension that inspires children to read. This month we are launching our #SerialMashSummer Reading Challenge.

Purple Mash's spelling scheme of work includes teaching slides, spelling practice sheets, dictation activities and self-marking quizzes! It's easy to pick up and start, and perfect for all teachers, HLTAs and LSAs leading spelling lessons.
