Disused pedagogical material

Bliss Symbols are a set of simple line drawings of natural things which combine to form every idea you can think of. To the untrained eye they may at first look rather abstract but after learning only a hundred or so basic symbols, the whole writing system of more than 5,000 symbols becomes transparent. Can you think of a better way to learn a new language, than singing it? Of course you'll sing in your native tongue since you're learning a writing system, not a spoken language. Learn the songs by listening on YouTube as you try to sing the lyrics from the Bliss Symbols. When you finish singing the book, you should have a pretty good vocabulary.
