Pay tribute to the origin and significance of Teacher's Day.

Origin: In the modern history of China, Teachers' Day was celebrated many times on different dates. It was not until 1985, when the ninth meeting of the 6th the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) passed the State Council's proposal on the establishment of Teachers' Day, that 1985 September 10 was really determined as the first teachers' day in China. Significance: to improve people's understanding and evaluation of teachers' educational contribution.

1, the origin of Teacher's Day

Before the founding of New China, there were two versions of Teachers' Day. First of all, the "June 6th" version of Teachers' Day organized by the educators of 193 1 is aimed at calling for improving teachers' treatment. The second is 1939, the "August 27" version of Teacher's Day set up by the Ministry of Education of the Kuomintang government. However, the former was not recognized by the Kuomintang government, and the latter was not implemented nationwide because of war and other reasons.

1985 September 10, teachers all over the country celebrated their first teachers' day. 1981March, at the fourth session of the fifth session of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, 17 CPPCC members of China Association for Promoting Democracy jointly submitted a proposal: a proposal on determining the date and activities of National Teachers' Day.

1985 65438+ 10, in the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), Premier the State Council proposed the establishment of Teacher's Day, which was passed by the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), and 10 was designated as Teacher's Day every September.

2. The significance of Teacher's Day

"Respecting teachers and attaching importance to education" is an excellent traditional culture in China. As early as the Western Zhou Dynasty in 1 1 century BC, the idea of "disciples should be teachers and respect their fathers" was put forward. The word "teacher" has two meanings: "It refers to both a social role and the undertaker of this role".

The initial intention of setting up Teacher's Day is to respect teachers and attach importance to education. I hope that the purpose of respecting teachers and attaching importance to education can be achieved through the establishment of this festival.

In fact, it is not the most important day for Teachers' Day. The most important thing is how to improve teachers' image and quality, form a social fashion of respecting teachers and attaching importance to morality, promote the construction of teachers' team and mobilize teachers' enthusiasm for teaching and educating people.
