Break into "sectionals." All Violin 2s go to the kitchen to practice their pizzicato section. Violin 1s stay in the living room. The key is to isolate the harmonic rhythm.

Ensemble playing is the joy of music. While playing Twinkle alone proves you can hold the bow, playing the second violin part in a quartet proves you can make music .

Do not try to perfect it. Print the parts. Assign Violin 1 to your most advanced student, Violin 2 to the shy one, Viola to the transfer student, Cello to the older sibling. Let them play at tempo. It will sound messy. Laugh about it.
