Nimble NoteNamers Practice Websites
Here are some links for websites that help with practicing note-names:
For beginners — these websites let you limit the note range to drill.
Note Trainer allows you to choose which staff to drill and the note range; you can also toggle on/off helpers that name the lines and spaces on the staff.
This Note-Naming Video Game is very good for kids — you can choose which staff to drill and the note range, and the video game format is fun to play!
This downloadable game starts very simple — only identifying middle C and D, and gradually adds more notes into the range. You can choose to name notes on just one clef or the grand staff, and you can give your answer by letter name, keys on the piano, or frets on the guitar. When you go to the website, scroll down to the very bottom of the page — the game is called Notecard.
More advanced — these websites drill a wider note range.
