[Edit this paragraph] The origin of Teacher's Day
A group of students from Jinan University rode bicycles to the north and submitted a proposal to the Ministry of Education and the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League to set up Teachers' Day. A year later, the State Council decided to designate 10 every September as Teacher's Day. Since then, mainland teachers have also had their own festivals.
Teachers' Day is the only three professional festivals in China, including Nurses' Day and Journalists' Day. Since 193 1, there have been four kinds of teachers' days with different dates and natures in different historical periods in China.
The earliest Teacher's Day in China history is 193 1 year. At that time, Taitai, Cheng Qibao and other educators gathered in Nanjing Central University and issued a declaration calling for "improving teachers' treatment, ensuring teachers' work and enhancing teachers' self-cultivation", and unanimously agreed that June 6 was Teachers' Day, also known as Double Six Days. Soon after, the Kuomintang government first agreed to designate June 6 as Teacher's Day. In view of the fact that "June 6th" Teacher's Day was set up spontaneously by teachers, it was later changed to August 27th (Confucius' birthday), and the Interim Measures for the Commemoration of Teacher's Day was issued, but it was not implemented nationwide at that time. After the founding of New China, the Central People's Government resumed June 6th as Teachers' Day, and the Ministry of Education informed local educators to organize their own celebrations according to the actual situation. 195 1 year, the national education trade union was established, and educators were recognized as part of the working class. 1951April19, Minister of Education and Chairman of the National Committee of China Education Trade Union made a written statement, announcing that "May 1 International Labor Day" is also Teacher's Day. However, due to the lack of teachers on this day, the implementation result is not ideal. Especially after 1957, under the influence of "Left" thought, teachers were ignored, and Teacher's Day actually did not exist.
"I don't know why. When I got up that morning, it suddenly occurred to me that teachers should have their own festivals. " Professor Wang Zikun, the earliest creator of Teacher's Day and academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, said this.
On February 9, Professor Wang told the Beijing Evening News reporter. The next day, Beijing Evening News published an article "President Wang Zikun suggested to carry out activities of respecting teachers and valuing morality", which aroused strong response from readers. 65438+February 65438+May, Zhong Jingwen, Qi Gong, Wang Zikun, Tao Dayong, Zhu Zhixian, Huang Ji and Zhao Qinghuan of Beijing Normal University jointly proposed the establishment of Teacher's Day. 1985 65438+1October 2 1 The Ninth Session of the Sixth the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) made a resolution to designate September 10 every year as Teacher's Day.
In order to carry forward the fine tradition of "respecting teachers and attaching importance to teaching" and improve teachers' status, the ninth meeting of the 6th the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) (1985 1) decided to designate September 10 as China Teachers' Day every year. On the first Teachers' Day, Li Xiannian, the then principal, sent a letter of condolence to teachers all over the country to congratulate the festival, and a celebration meeting of 10,000 people was held in the capital. During Teacher's Day, 20 provinces and cities commended 1 187654 38+0 provincial outstanding teachers' collectives and individuals.
In fact, as early as 1932, the Kuomintang government had designated June 6 as Teacher's Day. After liberation, June 6th was abolished as Teacher's Day, and at the same time, it was changed to "May 1st International Labor Day" as Teacher's Day. However, teachers have no separate activities and no characteristics. September 10 Teacher's Day is set in consideration of the new school year in universities, middle schools and primary schools all over the country, and schools should have a new atmosphere. When freshmen enter school, they begin to respect teachers and attach importance to teaching, which can create a good atmosphere of "teachers teach well and students learn well" 1985 September 10 is the first teachers' day in China. Since then, teachers have their own festivals.
The establishment of Teacher's Day indicates that teachers are respected by the whole society in our country. This is because the work of teachers largely determines the future of our country. Teachers' work is closely related to every family, every child, teenager and youth. Teachers play a great role in the development and progress of human society. Teachers are engineers who cast human civilization, disseminators and builders of human civilization. The continuity of the development of human civilization depends on the work of generations of teachers. A society, a country and a nation will suffer losses in the process of civilization if teachers do not work hard and effectively. Therefore, a history of civilization without teachers is unimaginable.
Since then, every year on Teachers' Day, teachers all over the country have celebrated their festivals in different ways. By selecting awards and introducing experiences, we can help solve practical difficulties in salary, housing, medical care and improving teaching conditions. Teachers' enthusiasm for education has been greatly improved.
Once upon a time, probably in Confucius' time, there was Teacher's Day. At first, every teacher had many disciples. These disciples hold a simple and solemn ceremony on Master's birthday every year, and express their admiration and blessings to Master in a pious manner. Later, students also had students, which was a bit confusing, because more and more teachers made students more and more tired. They have to spend a lot of time and energy to learn the etiquette and skills of expressing piety on the master's birthday, and even take up the time for students to learn scientific and cultural knowledge. Finally, etiquette itself has simply become a science, and it has become more reasonable, legal and logical for people to express their piety to their hosts. There is no doubt that etiquette is more tedious and boring than ever before. When it becomes a discipline, people who call it tedious and boring will be labeled as ignorant, so people no longer doubt the value of this discipline, and life goes on like this.
The atmosphere of respecting teachers and attaching importance to morality has spread rapidly in the Central Plains, and every teacher has an irreplaceable festival. And every teacher will express his blessing and gratitude to his teacher in a pious, faithful and solemn way in countless festivals belonging to his master. Later, things changed, and it was found that the leading figures in the academic circles and the figures at the Daniel level were always admired and thanked the most, because their disciples were all over the country, even including high-level people living in seclusion in the mountains. Under the etiquette culture of respecting teachers and valuing morality, Taishan-level figures quickly became popular in rivers and lakes, academies, fields and markets. Later, people were surprised to find that it was the same person who burned incense and bowed down on a certain day. It turns out that this man has put all the scholars in the world under his door. In fact, it was a long process, but he became the master of the world overnight, a great man, a saint and even a man of God. The so-called Teacher's Day is a day fixed at this time.
