Adapting a combination of the rhetorical situation and the pentad, this study presents a rhetorical criticism of ‘ki Oyo lee da’a, ajumose gbogbo wa ni’, slogan of Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo state. In its absence however, some other factors must account for the success of a political slogan. Oration is a major factor that determines the effectiveness of political slogans. Future research is expected to be empirical so that it can investigate the effect of the thematic module on students' higher order thinking skills. The final step of the development of the module was performed by providing teachers with a training program on teaching resources and lesson study.

The use of the module showed a significant improvement in student achievement. At the define stage, a thematic module was created and at the develop stage, it was revised based on suggestions from experts and the results of the field try-outs. These modules did not provide the students with activities which could help improve their thinking skills. A survey and interviews were conducted at the define stage and the results proved that the students used modules which only accommodate the traditional learning model. We adopted a 4d development model, which comprises four stages: define, design, develop, and disseminate to produce the module. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness and practicality of modules used to teach the elementary students in Ambon, Moluccas, Indonesia and as a result generate a thematic module based on Numbered Heads Together (NHT) cooperative learning model.
