When a student plays this game in their piano lesson (with the Studio Edition) they select their name and the level they want to play. A note is shown along with the letters of the musical alphabet: ABCDEFG. If they choose the correct letter, the ninja dude kicks the board. If they are wrong, he runs into the board and falls down. The students are graded on both accuracy and the speed of their answering. At the end of their turn, which lasts 45-90 seconds, depending on the level, they are presented with their score and a ninja belt color - white, yellow, tan, green...all the way up to black. It takes each student about 3 minutes total to play one time.
Each time a student logs back into the game during their lesson, they see if they are still on top of the score board for their level. The students get to know each other in the studio through these games, the Award Board in the hallway, and at recitals, so it's fun to see the interaction from lesson to lesson. Plus, students get to choose the level they want to play, so they can work at their own pace.
