number of diatomic molecules.
C. Differentiation The content will be differentiated by having it read aloud and the
slides in front of the students. Period 9 will have more time to ask
questions and the slides will be slowed down, so they understand
it more.
D. Closure The students will be asked the difference between ionic and
covalent bonds.
VI. Assessment The students will be informally assessed by asking each
individual a small question about the number of atoms in a
compound or the compound itself to check for understanding.
