So, you have a great yearbook theme and your students are excited about it, but what if you don`t execute it well? Without the right polish, even the best yearbook theme can fall flat on its face!
Here are a few tips for making your yearbook theme shine:
- Play it up. It`s fine to go over the top with a yearbook theme and make it overly obvious.
- Twist it. Use different meanings of the same theme to make the entire yearbook fascinating to students as they unravel the different meanings.
- Work it. Use your theme in everything. This is a lot of fun, turn titles into plays on words to reflect the yearbook theme, captions, borders, etc.
Most of all, just have fun with the yearbook theme that you`ve chosen. Let your students come up with great ideas on how to use it and turn it into something interesting, your passion will shine through the photos and yearbook layouts.
