The F Major Scale...

So for the most part I've been good with scales and getting my thumb to fold over to play them

but on the F major scale it plays

F G A A#

I don't think my thumb is supposed to play the A# as that is just really awkward but then if I play it with my 4th finger I get all off trying to play (This is with my right hand, left hand just plays through it normally)

I have a feeling I will encounter this problem in the future with other scales so I'd just like some help if you will

Small typo, it's B#
For scales the easier solution is here https://afpa.hooxs.com/piano-scales-f3/scales-arpeggios-in-pdf-t459.htm?sid=b93b3d75668e1b1da5e4b62ca480d81d (see the major scales pdf), numbers above and below the staffs tell you what finger should be used to play that note. Unluckily few sheets comes with these useful hints

B# = C
F Major = F - G - A - (A#/Bb) - C - D - E - F

No problem about the video I have been thinking of making one for a long time, and finally got around to do it

Wait. So when you say you're gonna play the F major scale...you only play the white keys for that scale? *slightly confused* apologies

I thought he was correcting me, but really that would be the next note in the scale
