Worn Within Season 2 PREMIERE: June 7, 2023

EDUCATION Curriculum: The six episodes of STAGE Season 2 were edited down to 12 short clips for classroom use and added to the STAGE collection of videos and resources on PBSLM. Each clip is supported with a facilitator guide, unique discussion questions, and at least one activity. There are 25 activities in total. The educational materials are intended for use in formal and informal 6-8 grade general music classrooms and extend to other subject areas. They are connected to both local and national academic standards. Data: During the reporting period, there were a total of 773 pageviews on PBSLM. Community Engagement: During the reporting period, TPT Learn reached 15 educators through a training with the Minnesota Society for Music Teacher Education and 45 staff via training at the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities. TPT Learn Social and Email Distribution: The TPT Learn team reached 15,118 educators and caregivers through our educator newsletter, email campaign to local music educators, Meta ad campaigns, and TPT Storyboard.

DESCRIPTION Worn Within takes viewers on a journey through the fashion world, from the lab to the catwalk to the street. This season explores a range of topics, including sizing, gender-neutral clothing, modest fashion, streetwear, and fast and slow fashion. Interviews with Twin Cities creatives, behind-the- scenes footage, and stunning visuals provide a unique perspective on the fashion industry and its impact on society. IMPACT The second season of Worn Within was created to appeal to Gen Z and millennials, with the understanding that it would most likely resonate with women, BIPOC communities, and the LGBTQ+ community. It was created for people who love clothing styles and all things fashion, for people who understand that fashion is a form of art and an expression of identity, for curious individuals who want to know more about where fashion trends originated, and for people who want to change the fashion and clothing industry for the better.

Educator feedback:

“It is hard to find good, quality resources featuring local music for middle school music classes. This curriculum is amazing! I hope TPT has a plan to share it far and wide. I know so many teachers that could use this and would love it.” “It’s so wonderful to see local musicians that are living and breathing today. I can see some of my students getting really excited about these artists and finding them on social media or attending a live performance. They are going to love it!” “As music teachers, we are required to teach about Native music to our students. However, it is really difficult to get the rights to Native music, so there are such few resources out there to use. This fills a huge gap in our curriculum.”
