Sensory and Mental data

Is it a good idea or of any use to divide parts of data into sensory and mental, on the basis of their consumption-type?

E.g. – 
1) There are 3 types of pens available in this shop. 

Senses – pen, shop

Mind – types, 3, available. (My mind has processed sensory data and arrived at these inferences about it. These descriptions of reality are purely mental products.)

2) John gave a ball to Jack.

Sensory – John, Jack, ball, gave

Mental – —

3) John is the smartest man in the world.

Sensory – John, world

Mental – smartest, man

4) Giving gifts is a good tradition.

Sensory – gifts, tradition, giving 

Mental – good
