Classification scheme

Imagine you have a bunch of toys that belong to different categories like cars, stuffed animals, and balls. And imagine that you need to put them in their own special place so you can find them easily.

That's where a classification scheme comes in! It's like a special system where you group similar things together. So, you might put all your cars in one box, your stuffed animals in another box, and your balls in yet another box.

This way, when you want to play with a car or a stuffed animal, you know exactly where to look to find it. Classification schemes are helpful in lots of other areas, too. Scientists use them to organize different species of animals and plants, librarians use them to organize books in a library, and even computer programmers use them to organize data!
