Ten levels across both clefs
Start with natural notes in treble and bass clef, combine them on the grand staff, then add sharps, flats, ledger lines, and wider registers. Notes you miss receive extra practice weight until recognition improves.
Identify the note on the staff
Note identification — naming a written pitch by its position on the staff — is the foundation of sight reading. Until you can recognize notes automatically, without stopping to count lines, reading music will feel slow. Structured repetition turns each staff position into a direct, familiar cue.

Use on-screen buttons, the clickable piano, microphone pitch detection, or a connected MIDI device. Pick the input that keeps your attention on reading rather than operating the exercise.
Piano asks you to read two clefs at once, and fluency in one does not automatically transfer to the other. Focused work in each clef makes grand-staff reading feel less like translation and more like recognition.
