Clearing the Clutter
Doug has a very messy room. It's almost impossible to get into his room because of all the stuff piled up on the floor. He's got stuff everywhere - clothes, shoes, hats, a couple of skateboards, computer parts, video games - you name it. His room is packed with stuff.
Doug hates the way his room looks. He can't move around, can't find anything, and, honestly, his room smells a little funny. He has grown tired of it but doesn't know where to begin. Maybe he could find some tips on the Internet.
He went online and found a plan for clearing out the clutter. He started picking things up in one corner of the room. On his bed, he made three piles: one of things he definitely wanted to keep, another for things he didn't want, and a third for things that he might want.
