Level 5 Checkpoint

Read the first note

Anchor the first note carefully. Interval reading only works when the starting note is secure.

Then read the distance

Use the visual gap to decide the next key. Check whether the notes are neighboring, skipping, or leaping farther.

Guided walkthrough

Use the checkpoint to prove that interval reading is stable from different starting notes.

1. 1Anchor the first note.
2. 2Name the distance and direction.
3. 3Play the destination without counting every staff position from scratch.

Try it on the keyboard

Play the checkpoint at a tempo where every interval can be named before it is played.

1. 1Say anchor.
2. 2Say interval.
3. 3Play destination.

Check yourself

Can you recover if the starting note changes?
