Eye See Unity: Beautiful Art the Rose That is She

Publisher Marketing: "Eye See Unity" encompasses an array of powerful poems and motifs. The photographs featured in this book are taken at the Botanical Gardens. The author incorporates these photos bringing fourth her vision of how delicate and beautiful women are in comparison with her poetic work of art. The inspirational illustrations bare Angela's dream of empowering women nationwide. Her ultimate goal is to bring about positivity and unity amongst women from all walks of life. "Eye See Unity" campaign has put a positive spin on a popularly used term that is expressed when referring to women. In society today the term B***H is not only commonly used, but is accepted in most avenues. Angela has created positive messages with her H to the B logo empowering women to view and celebrate their finer qualities in an optimistic way. The campaign will encourage women of all races, ages, class and sizes to be mindful of how we express ourselves because words are very powerful and we as women never want to give the wrong impression. "We are phenomenal, courageous, and beautiful." These are essential words to live by self-respect, self-love, self-worth, and self-esteem. Own them. Embrace them. Exude them! This is the vision of the Eye C Unity Project Angela Butler founder. Contributor Bio:  Butler, Angela Angela Schroden has worked for Hillsborough County Public Schools for fifteen years where she began her career as a classroom teacher in both 2nd and 5th grades. Angela also served as a literacy coach for four years where she provided daily support (coaching, modeling, planning, demonstration lessons, etc.) to K - 5 teachers in all areas of literacy, content, and pedagogy and as assistant principal for a Title I elementary school. Angela then moved to the district level where she joined the Elementary Language Arts team. As a District Resource Teacher for elementary reading she supported 144 elementary schools (Title I and non-Title I) in implementing balanced literacy, reader's and writer's workshop, small-group instruction, the gradual release of responsibility, the Comprehension Toolkit, and intervention. Angela's school support included teaching, coaching, observation, and training. During her time at the district level Angela created and delivered dozens of staff development modules, district-wide planning tools and curricula - such as, assessment planning tools, data conferencing guides - as well as hundreds of literacy lessons. Based on her work implementing The Comprehension Toolkit in Hillsborough County, Angela coauthored a book with Stephanie Harvey and Anne Goudvis titled Staff Development with The Comprehension Toolkits: Implementing and Sustaining Comprehension Instruction Across the Curriculum (Heinemann 2012). Most recently, Angela earned her Ed. D. from USF in Educational Leadership. Her research focused on leadership content knowledge, where she examined the relationship between principals' perceived reading knowledge and the leadership decisions they make to support reading instruction.
