It's probably a low utility word, so I would definitely think about the usefulness of teaching it in terms of the passage.

I would want to try synonyms for this word to help teach it, as well as look at greek and latin roots.

No matter what grade level or age we can't assume that students already know these words. We are lucky to have a Music instructor for grade 3-6 at our school sight and I am sure their vocabularies have been enriched due to the opportunity to play instruments.
