We know you don’t have time to search our site for new and exciting resources, so each month we’re putting together a blog to show you the very best of what’s new across the 2Simple range.
This term marks the opening of our annual Festive Card Competition where students (and this year, school staff) can design a festive card with the potential of it becoming one of the official Purple Mash cards as well as winning other fantastic prizes.
Many of our users will be very excited to learn that we now have our very own online shop, where you can purchase branded merchandise. This includes code bugs, 2Simple stationery, posters, bags and even Cody plushies! A range of items are available in packs of 25 or 30, making them perfect for class sets. You'll also be able to get your hands on the new Top 10s book which is due to be released very soon.
Back for Series 2 due to popular demand are our Making Learning Fun workbooks, created with Little Brother Books. This time your young learners will work with the fun characters from Peanuts (Snoopy), Angry Birds and Wallace and Gromit! There are 6 workbooks in total covering a range of lessons in maths and English, and they're currently available online and in a selection of Lidl stores.
