For many people the yearbook may be the only
place where their name appears in print. A good yearbook is many things to many people. Read the descriptions below, then create a Word document and explain in your own words:
- what would make you want to buy a Shuswap yearbook?
- what is the most important part of a yearbook to you?
- will you be getting friends to sign your yearbook?
- what will you be looking for in your yearbook when you open it in 20 years?
- People book
- a yearbook should include as many people as possible, not just the popular ones.
- Record book
- the yearbook should give an accurate account of all the events as they happen during the
year.
- Memoirs book
- the yearbook should be biographical including quotes and information about sports,
activities, assemblies, field trips, graduation, and other significant events.
- Story book
- a good yearbook should contain funny stories and colorful descriptions of the
happenings, feelings, comments, and attitudes of the people who were part of this school
year.
- History book
- yearbooks are used to check out information about people you went to school with.
- Public relations book
- a yearbook should project a positive image about the school to the general public. The
public is involved through advertising, donations to special school functions, and
parents.
- Time Capsule book
- the yearbook reflects a style, attitude, idea, and feelings from one specific year.
The Yearbook staff agree to be alert and aware of whats
happening, to be open to possibilities and to include everyone in the school in the
book as often as possible and to formulate a manuscript that will eagerly relate through
words and pictures the positive feelings of the students during this school year.
