What you'll learn

  1. 1

    Imagine a guitar string. When you pluck it, it makes a sound. The notes go up and down like a slide! 🎸

  2. 2

    When you move your finger down the guitar string, does the sound get higher or lower? 🎵

  3. 3

    Let's play a little game. Tap the notes on the guitar string to make a tune! 🎶

  4. 4

    Let's read a simple tune together. The notes go: low, middle, high. 🎵

  5. 5

    Now you try! Follow the notes on the screen and tap where your finger should go. 🎸

  6. 6

    If a note is written HIGH on the page, where do you put your finger on the guitar? 🎯
