THEME DEVELOPMENT!
WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Theme Development!
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: A theme is a central idea or concept that sets the tone for telling the story of the year. Repeated throughout the yearbook on cover and endsheets and in opening, closing and dividers, it unifies the storytelling message of the book and gives it personality.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: Today we will research previous publications and brainstorm on ideas for THIS school year's yearbook theme!
What is a Theme?

Why Do We Want a Theme?
The main purpose of a yearbook theme is to capture the uniqueness of the school year while setting the tone for the story the yearbook will tell.
Without a unifying theme, our yearbook contains only arbitrary events and students. Theme functions as the understated but essential ingredient to make this year’s story meaningful.

Developing a theme....Asking the questions!
What’s popular with our students this year?
How are OUR students different from others?
What issues are our students passionate about?
Who are our students’ role models?
What makes this school year different from all the others?
Doing some research!
We can go online to get ideas and find avenues to help!
SWOT Development
Whereas this technically works on buisness models...we can apply it to yeabook!
A yearbook SWOT analysis focuses on existing strengths and creates opportunities from weaknesses.
Let's start with a SWOT analysis.
It's used for strategic planning and to stay ahead of upcoming events.
Let's take a moment to discuss what are thoughts are?
2024/2025 Yearbook
Let's list all the changes, new initiatives, and differences that make this school year stand out from the last five.
Are we doing a building project?
Did we add an program?
Is there new leadership?
Did we add anything school/sports/programs?
Is this a particularly special year in our history?
How can you convey this story this year?
Many times, students come up with a catch phrase and want it to dictate the content. Our story—whether we have a visually strong, photographic book, or a journalistic yearbook full of features—should lead your look.
TODAY: Look for THEME IDEAS....
NEXT MONDAY: Come to class with 10 theme ideas to discuss in class!
2024/2025 Yearbook

Things to think about...
What’s popular with our students this year?
How are OUR students different from others?
What issues are our students passionate about?
Who are our students’ role models?
What makes this school year different from all the others?
WHY do you like THIS idea???
How will we convey the theme and story?
Does it appeal to the entire student body?
Remember! YOU are trying to "sell" this to our class!
What would it take to convince them?
How to Maintain Yearbook Theme Concepts Across All Pages
From the 2023 HOOVER Yearbook...
Making our yearbook theme shine isn’t just about choosing a fun concept (it is apart of it but not all!).
It’s also heavily dependent on how you weave your idea throughout all the pages of our book–it’s the implementation that makes your theme of choice a huge success.
As we’re brainstorming the theme ideas that will dictate our publication’s direction for this year, there are several things we should consider in the process.
Let's mold our idea to our school and where to showcase our theme throughout the yearbook to take our innovative concept from good to great.
Features and Our Yearbook Theme
Before we start a new feature, think about the different ways that our yearbook theme could be woven throughout the storyline.
This can help us to come up with more applicable questions and concepts before assigning articles to each student or team, leading to more interesting content.
For example...
The quotes section of a “More Than Words” theme could integrate student-submitted designs that visually take their quotes to the next level.
A Dr. Seuss theme could incorporate silly, rhyming poems about the school year, which are written and submitted by each classroom.
Putting in a little planning upfront will help us to weave our theme seamlessly throughout each of our features, while also bringing out more our school’s personality across our entire book.
Common Photo Elements
A fun way to incorporate our theme across our entire publication is to create a common element for our photos. This is most easily done through the use of a prop. For example...
A plush hat, similar to what the Cat in the Hat wears, could bring your Dr. Seuss theme to life within all of your class photos.
For a More Than Words theme, this photo prop could be a chalkboard easel, where students write something to supplement each of your pictures.
The key to choosing an awesome prop is to find something that makes sense within your theme, that the kids on your campus can have some fun with.
Design will drive the message home!
Remember, the design of our publication can also bring out more of our yearbook theme.
From the bright reds and blues that is used in the headlines to supplement the Dr. Seuss concept to how to incorporate stunning, original graphics with a More Than Words theme, use the design of each page to pull your features and the overall concept behind your book together.
Key areas of your design that should meld with your theme include:
Cover: The first thing that our readers will see, our cover should be a direct visual tie-in between our theme and our school.
Headlines: Use font design, size, and color to evoke more of the idea behind our yearbook theme.
Visual Cues: Find different supplemental images and graphics that support our theme for use throughout our book.
Layout: The layout, or template, of our book should reflect our yearbook theme in more subtle ways. Think about how to best convey our concept across our layout before we start writing content, as this will affect the amount of space we have available for each story.
AGAIN...How can WE convey this story this year?
Many times, students come up with a catch phrase and want it to dictate the content. Our story—whether we have a visually strong, photographic book, or a journalistic yearbook full of features—should lead your look.
Yes!
