to Kangaroo:
Most children, especially young boys, cannot concentrate for a long period of time. Their focus might last only 5-15 minutes at a time. It's absolutely fine to take breaks. As long as those 5-15 minutes are productive and are "quality" practice. Several 15 minutes or 20 minutes sections a day should be sufficient. One thing to note - it would be easier for the child to concentrate if TV, PSP, NDS, PS3, xbox, Wii, computer, etc. are not around visual distance, during practice and breaks (for tv, make sure it's off). The reason is that children get distracted easily. Any of those would arise their curiosity and thus distract them from doing what they're supposed to. During breaks (if it's a long one), you can put on some music at the background for relaxation purpose. Besides rock, pop, and heavy metal, any kind of music would do fine.
It is common for everyone to like to play the pinao, but don't like to practice. (Not just for kids, more so to adults). Reasons are obvious. Because practice is hard work, playing is the result of practice and thus immediate satisfaction is much higher than practice. Therefore the more details and concentrate the practice is, the better the playing will be. I always tell my students that don't do "quality" practice this - Practice 10 minutes as if you have already practiced for an hour. To achieve is that is super easy, super concentrate during those 10 minutes and I'll believe that you've practiced for an hour a day and I'll only trust my ear. At the begining, I'll assign them less material (but gotta be details oriented). Once they get the hang of it, I'll gradually increase their workload and their concentration extends a bit.
See if this would help your son - ask if he wants to impress the teacher. If so, tell him that the good news is, he doesn't need to practice more, rather, he could practice less if he is concentrated enough.
I hope this helps. :)
Cheers,
Connie

ConylukThanks. I always find it very hard to ask my son sit down and concentrate on practising piano. He practise 45min every day, but during this 45 min, he will practise sometimes and then go ... |
