Remedial: Allow
students to use atom

further explain clearly
how they represent
Es and Cs.

Extension:
Investigate
supramolecular
chemistry and find 3
interesting things they
learned to teacher.
Teach concepts to
Compounds
Intro: Show real examples of different compounds like water, salt,
and some acids/bases from the lab (eg. NaOH, HNO 3) to introduce
the topic. Play YouTube video on chemical compounds.
Body:
1.One by one students are to read a paragraph out loud to the class
from p. 257-260.
2.Bring out enough sets of atom models for one between a pair.
Have them construct at least 3 different compounds (eg. CO 2,
H2O, CO, NaCl, H2, HCl, NaOH)
3.Explain to students using diagrams on board how different
compounds are arranged like lattices, molecules and so on.
Students to copy examples into workbooks.
4.Students to complete Qs5, 6, 8, 11, 13 p. 263. Answers to Q11, 13
are to be discussed in groups of threes. Teacher to facilitate and
extend discussion using key questions. Encourage students to
draw on paper or on whiteboard to help their learning from and
teaching of others.
5.Using their knowledge of compound structures, ask the groups to
combine with another group and assign them a compound. They
will use their bodies to represent the different structures.
Conclusion: Ask students to write down a paragraph on how they
felt being their compound. Think-Pair-Share their reflections then
