What Reading Means: The runners up

There were four official entries in our holiday "meaning of reading" video contest for first graders, and two submissions after the deadline. While Smyth Road received high honors, we are proud to show you the creativity of some of the honorable mentions. Well done, boys and girls!

(Note: We cannot post every video we received because we don't have the OK from signed media releases for all the children.)

The structure will be different from similar events that often follow a "career fair"-type format in which professionals representing various fields set up displays and wait to be approached by interested students. At West, every teacher will be matched with a guest speaker related to his or her subject area.
