1. Before and after: You can take some photos of your classroom during the first week of class and then during the last week of class next May or June. That would be quite the differnce! Or you could take a photo of each student with their nice clothes on the first day of classes, then follow up each month or then at the end of the year. Those would be great photobooks that woud be remembered for all time.
2. Yearbooks: This is a huge area of photobooks that many people don't realize yet. Essentially, the photobook of today is yesterday's yearbook. Just cheaper and easier to make. The teacher who gets burdened with the yearbook this year will have a lot more time on their hands when they realize how easy it is to make a yearbook with a photobook!
3. Rules book: Sometimes the sizes of photobooks can surprise people. At Silver Street Media there is a 12"x12" square book that is actually quite large. For elementary school teachers perhaps a photobook of rules could be a nice change of pace. Get some good photos (or funny ones) and make rule time actually a lot of fun!
4. Career Day photobook: These were always so much fun at school and when the kids come dressed up in their career clothes it's really fun. With a scanner the teacher can easily scan what the students write up about their chosen career. Their paper could be one page and their photo could be another page. Imagine seeing that 10 or 20 years later. Amazing!
5. Art Book: Similar to number 4 but if the teacher could get ahold of a scanner and scan in the student's art that would be awesome! One page is the art antoher page is the photo of the student! That would be a keepsake let me tell you!
There you go! We all hope that the new school year is a good year for all students, young and old.
