Help with sheet music please.

I am trying to play Howards Way Grade one.Only started trying to teach myself to play a couple of weeks ago.
I now know were all the notes are on my keyboard........YAY but am struggling with numbers above some of the notes ie
e with a number 4 above it..........c with a 2 above it............and then a g with a 1 above it.Also it looks like e and g might be played together not sure ?but a half moon runs from e to g. Can anyone please explain what these mean.
Thankyou

well those numbers are actually fingering suggestions. for example 2 means your pointing finger, 1 is your thumb, 5 is your pinky etc. ^_^

Hope that helps

Yep ..
I Prefer Playing (Suggested Fingers Sheets)
They are More Easier

Thanks,it's just the way it's numbered that confused me.........and YaY I can play it properly,if not somewhat slowly.

Sometimes fingering can be Very wrong to... I had a 5 on the first note in my turkish march where i was gona just glide three keys very fast after eachother... 5 on the first key is totally impossible So be aware of sheet-typos, they exist!!

Thanks I have already found that out.LOL
