Use a collection of objects that include objects that are
made of only one material and objects that are made of more than one material.
As a class, put an object made from one material to your right, and put an
object made from more than one material on your left. Ask the students if they
know how you are grouping the objects. Then add objects to both groups until
they guess that one group is made up of objects made from one material and the
other is made up of objects made of more than one material.
