Ready for some finger games? Let’s start by understanding the layout of the black keys—they’re grouped in twos and threes across the keyboard. Using this pattern helps us find notes easily. Place your right hand finger on D (between two black keys), and left hand finger on a D below it. Let’s play a quick game calling out finger numbers. This exercise builds familiarity with finger positioning and helps avoid confusion since hands are mirror images. Keep practicing, and you’ll get it!
