đ From #24 to #13 đ
Two years ago, as I wrapped up the first draft of my book, I faced a big decision: pursue a traditional publisher or take the self-publishing route.
After months of conversations and reflection, I chose to self-publish. That decision gave us the ability to:
- Maintain full control of the content
- Build meaningful partnerships to support real classroom implementation
- Keep the book accessible and affordable for educators
Today, Iâm excited to share news from our publisher that The Inclusive Classroom Framework: The Educatorâs Implementation Guide is now the #13 top-selling education book for Marchâup from #24 in February.
Even more meaningful than the ranking is the incredibly positive feedback weâre hearing from educators. Districts are using the framework to:
- Support new teachers and mentors with stronger classroom structures
- Equip paraprofessionals with practical strategies for inclusive settings
- Improve overall classroom climate across PreKâ12 environments
We also have upcoming trainings in Lindsborg, KS; Olathe, KS; and Nashville, TN, with more on the way.
Itâs energizing to be part of the growing momentum around improving classroom management and inclusive practices.
If youâre interested in learning more, you can explore the framework on our website, you can find the book digitally at https://cultivatechris.gumroad.com, or in print through IngramSpark or major retailers.
Thank you to everyone who has supported this journeyâmore to come.
