[quote=Anonymous]What are the instruments, and when did he start each? Is he taking Suzuki method? Honestly, I think at 5th grade, just learning two instruments is a lot already. Especially if he's new to playing an instrument, I would not bring in theory stuff just now. It won't make sense to him until he's able to play an instrument well enough anyway. If you really want to do more theory, you might just ask the teacher to mix in a little more theory, or supplement with a few worksheets. I took theory and ear training lessons privately in high school and it was totally worth it, it made me a much better musician. Of course I still wasn't that great. But it really helped. But-- I was in high school and self-motivated. I just think it's a lot to put on a 5th grader.[/quote]
