Collection with Classification
Example
<ou collect twelve rocks from your neighborhood
DQGGHFLGHKRZWRJURXSWKHP.
You might sort them by color, size, or how much they
sparkle.
Or you might put the rocks into categories of hard or soft.
First, soak them in water and then rub them on a hard
surface.
By comparing the size and color of the streak, the rocks
could be classified as softest rocks, next softest rocks,
and so on, until you have those which are hardest
 in the last category.
