Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are curious, energetic, and eager to learn through technology and play. Most of them are neurodivergent learners, and they thrive with tools that are interactive, engaging, and supportive of their unique needs.

With your help, I’d love to bring the Miko 3 AI-Powered Smart Robot (Pixie Blue) into our classroom.

Miko 3 is more than a toy, it’s a smart educational tool that helps build communication, critical thinking, and social-emotional skills through conversations, games, and interactive lessons.

This robot will give my students a safe, nonjudgmental partner to practice speaking, asking questions, exploring topics like math and science, and even learning mindfulness in a fun and personalized way.

For students who may struggle with traditional methods, Miko 3 offers a fresh, adaptive, and exciting approach to learning. Your support will help us create a more inclusive, tech-forward learning environment, where every child feels seen, heard, and excited to grow.

Thank you for helping me bring Miko into our classroom family!
