welll .... concept questions are questions asked by the teacher to chech students understanding ......

for example:

when the teacher askes the students this question ... what is the meaning of neighbourhood in Arabic? this is not a concept question ...

chech this one out ....
is neighbourhood a friendly place?
Is a cat a pet?Can they live in the jungle?

concept questions are used by teachers to Check understanding and check the state of learning.

hope i made it easier to get the idea of concept questions

Thanks, REEM-- I think I've got the idea. Something like--

Do you remember eating breakfast this morning? What did you have?
Did you remember to eat breakfast this morning, or were you running late?

Is that the sort of thing you're looking for, alyafee?
