Hi everyone! (puts xio on table) Let me show you a few things we can do.
First, Xio will learn who you are. (Turns Xio on)

Hi Xio. We're with new people today. Can you learn their names?
Yes
Ofcourse. Are we all humans here?
No
No dogs?
Just humans here.
Dog barking
That’s a chihuahua saying hello. I can recognize dogs, too.
Really, just humans!
Cow mooing

Ok.I’m going to ask my friend Hippo to read a short passage. Then I’ll ask you questions about it. If you’ve heard the passage before or otherwise wish tostop, just let me know. Ok?
Okay
A giant animal leaps out of the ocean and crashes back down. Water splashes everywhere. The animal is a humpback whale, and the great leap is called a breach. The humpback gets its name because of the way its back looks as it is about to dive.
