Reflection	Today's objectives did not achieve. Teacher has to go back to the exercises in the previous lesson since most of them request to repeat the lesson because do not really understand. Teacher gives different examples to make them understand better. The case is that students still do not remember all the formulas involved become the main reason of difficulties that faced by them. Teacher stress on that aspect many times and seems that students do not take it serious. Teacher gives more exercises until they master subtopic of chemical equation.
