Mateo rolls into the bright classroom. Sunlight streams through tall windows, painting warm stripes on the colorful floor. On his desk, a tablet beeps softly.
The screen lights up suddenly. Big, bubbly, colorful letters spell out his name across the display. Mateo leans forward and stares at the glowing letters.
He reaches out and gently taps the screen. Music fills the room — a happy, bouncy tune that makes everyone look up. Mateo smiles wide.
The cheerful music seems to tickle his wheelchair. His wheels wiggle on their own — a little circle here, a tiny bounce there. "This is fun," he thinks.
A classmate with curly hair slides her chair next to Mateo. She holds out a bright blue stylus. "Here! Let's draw together," she says with a grin.
Mateo takes the stylus and presses it to the screen. Together they swipe and tap in rhythm. A bright, glowing rainbow arcs across the big display.
The rainbow shimmers with impossible colors — pink, gold, turquoise, and violet — swirling like liquid light. Mateo's eyes go wide as he watches it pulse and glow.
Suddenly the tablet starts dancing! Rainbow colors splash and burst across the screen in wild, joyful spirals. Streaks of paint-fly light spread to every corner of the room.
The whole class gasps in surprise. Then laughter bubbles up from every desk like poppy seeds scattering. "Look at that rainbow!" someone cheers, clapping their hands with delight.
Mateo laughs until his shoulders shake and his wheelchair rattles slightly. He wipes a tear from the corner of his eye and grins at his friends.
The classroom wall transforms into a giant gallery of art. Every child's drawing shines side by side — animals, planets, castles, and gardens in bright watercolor and marker.
Mateo's rainbow sits right in the middle, the biggest and brightest of all. He rests his hands on his wheels and gazes at his artwork with quiet pride.
