The section on jQuery Basics http://stage.learn.jquery.com/jquery-basics/ isn't bad at all, but it could probably be expanded. Here are some of the pages under it that could use a little more work:

**$(document).ready()**
http://stage.learn.jquery.com/jquery-basics/document-ready/

Expand to cover:
* Some more tips: http://encosia.com/dont-let-jquerys-document-ready-slow-you-down/
* http://docs.jquery.com/Tutorials:Introducing_$(document).ready() (i.e http://www.learningjquery.com/2006/09/introducing-document-ready)
* http://alexsexton.com/?p=22 maybe?
* http://www.learningjquery.com/2006/09/multiple-document-ready

**Attributes**
http://stage.learn.jquery.com/jquery-basics/attributes/
* Cover props and attribs http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5874652/prop-vs-attr
* more .attr() examples

**Traversing**
http://stage.learn.jquery.com/jquery-basics/traversing/

Perhaps expanding with
* http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/10-super-helpful-traversing-functions-in-jquery/
* http://my.safaribooksonline.com/book/web-development/jquery/9780596806941/jquery-basics/traversing_the_dom_based_on_your_curr

**Selecting elements**
