Level 4 Checkpoint
Confirm that you can read C, G, and F major while applying accidentals in the right order.
Name the key
Before playing, say whether the exercise is in C major, G major, or F major. That tells you which letters may change.
Check altered notes
Watch F in G major and B in F major. Then apply any accidental that appears inside the measure.
Guided walkthrough
Use the checkpoint to prove that key signatures and accidentals happen in the correct order.
- 1Name the key before reading notes.
- 2Apply the key signature to the matching letter.
- 3Override it only when an accidental appears.
Try it on the keyboard
Play a short C major, G major, and F major fragment, naming the changed letter each time.
- 1C major: no changed letters.
- 2G major: F-sharp.
- 3F major: B-flat.
Common mistake
Many mistakes come from carrying the previous key into the next exercise.
Check yourself
Can you say the active changed letter before each fragment begins?
Lembre-se
The right order is clef, key signature, accidental, then keyboard.
