Five Saudi Arabian students from Penn College's English as a Second Language class met children at the Children's Learning Center on Wednesday morning to practice pronunciation skills and experience interacting with American children. The students explored the children's classroom and had an opportunity for play with the youngsters. The ESL students also read books to the children. Before they left, the students showed some words in Arabic related to the children's current lesson theme on oceans, and the children were excited to be able to say "fish" in another language. (
