A cover slip is a thin square of glass that you put over a specimen on a microscope slide. The cover slip stops the specimen from drying out, and squishes it so that light can get though it easier
It is faster and easier to use. Usually used for kids in classrooms.

Cover slip.
A wet mount slide is when a solution is applied to a microscope slide with whatever subject is being studied, typically under a slip cover.
Wet mounts are not attached to the slide, it is "floating". If you use an oil immersion lens, you have to put a drop of oil on the slide cover so the light can correctly focus. The oil will cause the slide cover to stick to the end of your Oil immersion lens. When you focus the field of focus will stay the same since the slip cover is stuck to the lens. When you go to change objectives, the cover will travel with your oil immersion lense.

This varies depending on the model of cover and manufacturer.
1 Make sure your slide, cover slip and medicine dropper are all clean, dry and dust-free.2 Place your flat slide on a clean, dry surface.3 Use your medicine dropper to suck up a few drops of your liquid sample.4 Squeeze one drop of your liquid sample out onto the direct center of the flat slide.5 Gently lower your cover slip onto the flat slide. Put one edge of the cover slip down first, before lowering the rest of it. Do not press down on the cover slip once it is in place.6 Pick up the slide and cover slip combination and gently place it in the viewing tray of your microscope.
