Random Cards - How To Reduce Time Reordering Cards

You have six people sitting around a small desk, including yourself.
You are given a stack of colored cards [ GREEN, YELLOW, BLUE, RED, and GRAY ]in random order.

Once the procter gives the group the random cards, the students need to put the randomized cards into order by colors and put a paper clip in each complete set of cards.

The group is timed once the card is provided. The object of the mini-project is to see how quick the group finished the set in seconds. The challenge is, how to assign tasks to each member to expedite the reorderings of the colored cards.



Any suggestions?
