Conditions for mastering metacognitive actions in primary school classes

The article presents a study aimed at studying the conditions for the formation of metacognitive actions in second-graders related to reflection on problem-solving methods. A series of 12 weekly additional classes (over the course of three months) conducted using the author's developmental program "Metacognition" involved 146 children: 72 people made up the control group, 74 people - the experimental group. During the classes, the children solved plot-logical and spatial-combinatorial problems. It was shown that the noted classes significantly contribute to the formation of metacognitive actions in children related to problem solving.
