It is acutually very easy. The high A and the low A has the same fingering but with the high note you have to blow more air. With the low note you blow less air through. To play either A you put your left pionter and middle fingers on their places. Also your thumb in its place. The last finger to put on is your pinkie on the E-flat key.(The first key on the foot joint.

Edit: For highest octave, use middle finger on left hand, thumb, and pointer finger on right hand, pinky on right hand. If you don't use your pinky, the note will not sound.
