"There're Eight Parts of Speech" is from the alternate education 
program called ‘Bak2bay6-with a Musical Twist’, by 
Carlos Malcolm.  The program is an “outside of the box” 
method of reinforcing traditional classroom instruction. 
By utilizing ‘rap music’, drum beats and original songs to deliver
information, B2B modules teach the “Eight Parts of Speech”
 in English and the function of each part, as well as the
multiplication and other mathematical tables, an Introduction 
to Critical Thinking and an Introduction to Reading Music.
‘Customized’ modules are available to learners from the levels
of Pre-school, through Adult Education and ESOL
(English Speakers of Other Languages).
