How to Play the 2nd Note in a F Major Flute Scale

The 2nd note in the F major scale is G. Let's look at it in the staff this is G. To play a G on the flute let's look at our fingering chart we have the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and thumb key in the left hand. We have the pinkie key in the right hand. Here is how a G sounds. Let's review how to play G on the flute; we have the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and thumb key in the left hand.

Here is G one more time. Now I'm going to play now out of the scale that we have learned so far we would start playing from F to G which is a whole step.
