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. We adopted a 4D development model, which comprises four stages: define, design, develop, and disseminate to produce the module. 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. These modules did not provide the students with activities which could help improve their thinking skills. 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. The use of the module showed a significant improvement in student achievement. The final step of the development of the module was performed by providing teachers with a training program on teaching resources and lesson study. Future research is expected to be empirical so that it can investigate the effect of the thematic module on students’ higher order thinking skills.
