  2. B.Children construct and use knowledge about their world.
  3. C.Learning takes place through constant practice.✓ Correct
  4. D.Children act on their environment.

Explanation

Piaget's theory of cognitive development emphasizes that children construct knowledge through active interaction with their environment, progressing through qualitative stages (sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, formal operational). The idea that learning takes place through constant practice is associated with behaviorist theories (like Thorndike's law of exercise), not Piaget's constructivist approach. Piaget emphasized understanding and schema construction over rote practice.
