Tell the students that grouping of things on the basis
of any characteristic is called classification.
Ask the students to classify the things present in their
bags and then ask the following questions:
How did you arrange the materials present in your
bag? (Expected responses: Like things were put into
one group, unlike things were placed into different
groups).
Is there any benefit of this grouping/
arrangement? (Expected responses: things appear in

Orderly manner, counting becomes easy and
items of one group are similar).

and organized.
We can find out the basic characteristics of all
members of a group by examining only one
member.
