All Kindergarten through 6th grade students for USD 428 in Great Bend are reading "Charlotte's Web". As one of the many related activities that students and families are participating in, 4-H Agent, Michelle Beran had the opportunity to present to each of the 5 grade schools.

Highlights of the presentations include Kansas Day on Jan. 29, the importance of agriculture in Kansas, and fun facts about pigs. Students' favorite facts included pigs don't sweat and that many 4-H members use mini-marshmallows to help train their pigs to walk with them.
