Children form concepts through their interactions with people and their experiences as they grow

and develop. The use of one's senses is how young children normally build concepts. When a
child is forming an idea, he or she must classify characteristics of experiences based on related
traits. Moreover, the formation of concepts starts in infancy. Children acquire knowledge through
their senses of touch, smell, sight, hearing, and taste. When infants observe their surroundings,
they develop an understanding of size, weight, and shape. While they are growing up, they realize
that many objects are heavier than they can lift. Touching encounters teach us about the shapes
of objects. Furthermore, they're concept understanding and learning of the things will develop

Metacognition is, put simply, thinking about one’s thinking. More precisely, it refers to the
processes used to plan, monitor, and assess one’s understanding and performance. The way of
the learner's think is also the concern of metacognition. Metacognition encourages students to
understand how they learn best. It also helps them to develop self-awareness skills that become
important while they are growing up. Self-awareness enables them to know and focus on what
they still need to learn and to improve on their self. Furthermore, metacognition is important to a
teacher because if they are highly metacognitive, they would know if his or teaching method or
strategy is effective and it enables them to know how to improve the way they teach so that the
students will learn a lot from them
