Well, when I took piano lessons in high school, my teacher also did music theory with me. She got me a music theory text-workbook, and we went through the material in each section, and I did the excercises at home and brought them back into the lesson. It was pretty basic stuff - scales, triads, simple chord progressions, etc. I think there wouldn't be enough time to do this during a 1/2 hour lesson, but during an hour lesson, devoting 10 or 15 minutes to theory would work out well.
