This is very big topic to include in just one answer. SO I will give only the logical part.
Separate your template into multiple chunks like:
1. header.php
2. leftSidebar.php
4. rightsidebar.php
5. footer.php
Now, include these common part on your every page.
For example: index.php
<?php
include "header.php";
include "leftSidebar.php";
echo "<div>".$thedifferentpart."</div>"; //Change only this part on every other page you will create.
include "footer.php";
?>
NOTE: This is only a logical part, applying the concept on your code
