Description: Start your engines! In this simplified preschool-friendly deck, students drag colorful race cars onto the correct groups of black keys on a shortened piano keyboard. With playful visuals and immediate feedback, little learners quickly spot the repeating patterns of two and three black keys—an essential first step toward finding C, D, E and navigating the keyboard with confidence. Perfect for: 🎵 Whole-group “touch and tell” on an interactive board 🎵 Center work or stations 🎵 Early finishers and at-home practice 🎵 Primer to finding letter names on white/black keys What’s inside: 🎵 7 interactive cards (short and sweet for young attention spans) 🎵 Self-checking: cars snap into spots with built-in validation 🎵 Progressive challenge: sequential activity cards build up the skills and counting from groups of 2 keys, to groups of 3 keys, and finally groups of 2 and groups of 3 keys. Skills targeted: 🎵 Identify groups of two and three black keys 🎵 Recognize the keyboard’s repeating pattern (octave awareness) 🎵 Develop visual scanning and fine motor drag-and-drop control Accessibility: 🎵 Autoplay audio cues on each card 🎵 Accessibility text for each key image ©Overture Music Lessons 2025
