Description

The Thunderbolt Kids characters and graphical stories in this book were developed as part of the Kususa project (www.kusasa.org), initiated and funded by the Shuttleworth Foundation (www.shuttleworthfoundation.org/). This project aimed to develop analytical and creative thinking in Grade 4,5 and 6 learners through the use of character role models, experiments, simple computer modelling and carefully-sequenced lesson plans. The characters and stories were used with the permission of the Shuttleworth Foundation in these science adventures and the related Grade 4-6 Natural Science and Technology workbooks.
