Your First Piano Lesson

Hands and Fingers

Fingers with numbers

In the beginning, the notes you play will have numbers written above them. These numbers tell you which finger to use to play certain notes. The fingers on each hand represent a number from 1 to 5, where 1 is the thumb and 5 is the little finger. Take a moment to move the fingers of each hand up and down while counting from 1 to 5.
