In the age of challenges, there has emerged the curriculum "My Right to Play, Learn, and Create" in kindergartens in Egypt to represent a challenge to kindergarten teachers' competencies. For the purpose of promoting kindergarten teachers the current study aimed at training kindergarten students on learning how to think by using CoRT1! and determining its effectiveness on meta cognition .The study sample consisted of (n=60, M= 17.7) female students in the third level in Child Education department .The participants were assigned to two groups; experimental (n=30), and control group (n=30).CoRT1 was used after adjusting its activities. Meta cognition Inventory (Schraw& Dennison, 1994 standardized to Arabic by Abou Hashim, 1999) was also used. The two groups were assured to be analogous before administering CoRT1.The results indicated no significant differences among the means of the control group degrees before and after the administration of CoRT1 .Significant differences (p 20.01) were found in the total degree of meta cognition, its two dimensions and all its components except Information Administration and debugging (p=0.05) and all significant differences were in favor of the experimental group. There were also significant differences among the means of the experimental group in Meta cognition before and after CoRT | in favor of after CoRTI1. A significant effect size was found for CoRT]; very strong on total score of Meta cognition and the subscales: declarative, operational, and conditional knowledge about knowledge and evaluation; strong on planning, self monitoring and ambiguity avoidance; and medium strong on Information Administration. The effectiveness of CoRT1 lasted partially after a month since CoRT1 was suspended. The differences were in favor of the direct measurement after the termination of CoRTI compared to the follow up measurements. It is recommended to study the interaction among CoRT1 components and those on Meta cognition on large male and female samples of a variety of age levels. Keywords: CoRT ,meta cognition,my right to play, learn and create, pre- service kindergarten teachers .
