Grammar Land by M. L. Nesbitt

Summary: In this charming 1877 book of grammar instruction for children, we are introduced to the nine parts of speech and learn about the rules that govern them in Grammar-Land.

“Judge Grammar is far mightier than any Fairy Queen, for he rules over real kings and queens down here in Matter-of-fact-land. Our kings and queens have all to obey Judge Grammar?s laws, or else they would talk what is called bad grammar; and then, even their own subjects would laugh at them, and would say: ?Poor things!

They are funny fellows, these nine Parts-of-Speech. You will find out by-and-by which you like best amongst them all. There is rich Mr. Noun, and his useful friend Pronoun; little ragged Article, and talkative Adjective; busy Dr. Verb, and Adverb; perky Preposition, convenient Conjunction, and that tiresome Interjection, the oddest of them all.” Summary for Librivox

Math videos at Math Playground

Math Playground has lots of informative videos on a variety of math topics, from Numbers and Arithmetic to Algebra and Geometry, and everything in between.

Parents, please be aware these links will take you away from My Audio School, to a website which allows pop-ups.

Videos show a whiteboard with a teacher’s voice, explaining how a problem is worked. In addition to numbers, some videos show graphics, such as bars divided into fractions, etc.

There are also neat manipulatives, make-your-own and pre-made worksheets, and flashcards, though none of these appear to have an audio component.
