You find that you have inherited an old trunk from a great-uncle that

you never knew you had. It is a large trunk containing an intriguing
assortment of items. Do some prewriting to imagine what those items

are; then classify the items into three groups that have a common

basis for classification. For example, if you were classifying them

according to value, your groups might include items with no value,

items with sentimental value, and items with monetary value. Or you
might imagine you have found a trunk full of sports memorabilia and

classify the items according to sport (e.g., baseball, football, and

basketball). Use your imagination and have fun!
