回顾火鸡及英文
尊师重教是优良传统，早在公元前的11世纪西周的时期啊，就提出弟子誓师，敬同于父。古代大教育家孔子呢，更是留下了有教无类温故而知新，学而时习之等一系列的至理名言。可以追溯到汉代，古代的教师节和孔子有莫大的关系，在汉晋时期啊，孔子的诞辰日呢，也就是农历的8月27日，皇帝啊就会率领文武官员去祭拜孔庙，还会请教师们吃饭，教师啊已开始享受节日休假会餐等福利待遇了，唐宋时代呢，全国的啊各州府县啊都要举行孔子诞辰祭典，非常的隆重到了清代呢，规模和范围啊就是也是非常宏大了，在这天呢会被授予八品职衔，在这天呢会被授予八品职衔，提升为院长等等。
大家只知道9月10日是教师节，那么，教师节是怎么来的你知道吗?
教师节来历简短介绍“六六”教师节
1931年5月，教育家、南京中央大学教授邰爽秋、程其保发起，拟定每年6月6日为教师节。“六六”教师节产生了- -定的影响，但未被大众所承认。
“八二七”教师节
1939年，当时的教育部决定以中国教育家孔子的诞辰8月27日作为教师节。后来专家考证，降孔子的诞辰换算为9月28日;遂又将教师节一起改到了9月28日。但虽说如此，这个教师节也没能再全国推行。
“五.一 ”教师节
1951年，中国国家教育部、中华全国总工会共同商定，将教师节与“五一国际劳动节"合并在一起，在赞扬劳动者的同时也为教师这一-行业进行庆祝。但由于种种原因，该方案也并未得到实行。
“9月10日”教师节
1985年，第六届全国人大第八次会议正式通过了国务院关于设立教师节的议案，丙决定每.年的9月10日是我国的教师节。教师节定在9月初，全国新生入学伊始，即开展尊师活动。
1985年9月10日,
国家教委在人民大会堂隆重举行大会，庆祝新中国第一个教师节。
教师节有什么意义
建立教师节的意义，是为了进一步提高人民教师的政治地位和社会地位，逐步使教师的工作真正成为社会.上最受人尊重、最值得羡慕的职业之一，形成尊师重教、尊重知识、尊重人才的社会风气;有利于全社会关心教育事业，有利于提高整个中华民族的科学文化素质。
庆祝方式
由于教师节并非中国传统节日，所以各地每年都会有不同的庆祝活动，没有统一、固定的形式。
政府、学校方面，有举行教师节庆祝表彰大会，为教师颁发奖金、证书；有组织学校学生、歌舞团等，为教师献上歌舞表演 ；有走访、慰问教师代表 ，还有组织新入职教师进行集体宣誓等活动 。
学生方面，有自发通过原创参与、将祝福写在板报、贺卡、绘画上；有将合影照及活动感言晒至个人空间、微博上，来表达对教师的真挚祝福及衷心问候 。
香港在敬师日（教师节）当天，举行典礼表彰优秀老师，还会统一印制贺卡，学生可以免费领取后填好赠送给老师。卡片、鲜花、公仔一类小礼物通常是香港学生对老师表达教师节祝福最常见的礼物。
香港的敬师运动委员会在每年的9月10日举办“敬师日庆典暨表扬状颁发典礼”，典礼由学生乐队担任现场伴奏，家长唱歌的形式表达对老师的感谢和敬意，在现场也会播放师生间的感人故事视频，体现师生情。
此外，敬师会还举办“表扬教师计划”、“师生共育苗”种植活动、征文比赛、心意卡设计比赛、香港学校音乐及朗诵节敬师杯等活动。
通常有两种写法,美国写法和英国写法.
1.美国写法：September 10th（格式：月-日）。
2.英国写法：10th September（格式：日-月）。
Teachers' Day
外的教师节又是怎么过呢？下面我们来一起看看吧。
在美国， 在5月第一个整周的周二，整个一周都被称为“谢师周”。教师节来临的时候，家长们往往会给老师买一份小礼品，晚上的时候大家一起给老师举行一个联欢会，聊聊家长里短。如果是学生自己制作的礼物，老师收到后会非常感动。
俄罗斯：学生为老师献花
俄罗斯的教师节是10月的第一个周日，被认为是最受欢迎的节日之一。在这一天，在很多学校，老师还可以享受一天的休假，而学生还是要到学校自习。在俄罗斯，很多学生给老师送鲜花，节日送鲜花非常流行，既显得格调高雅，又不落俗套。在俄罗斯，赠送鲜花的朵数只能是单数，按俄罗斯的习俗，白色象征着纯洁、清白，大多数情况下还是送白花。
德国：纵享丝滑
每年6月12日是德国教师节。这一天德国各地都会开展尊师活动，学生也会给老师送特别的礼物。德国老师根本不在乎礼物的价值，而是看学生的心意。德国巧克力享誉世界，大多数人喜欢巧克力，所以很多学生选择送老师一块巧克力，老师非常欢迎。收到礼物后，老师还得写信感谢。
日本：天天教师节
日本中小学教师职业被视做“圣职”，教师被称为“先生”，与议员齐名。平时日本教师出门坐公交车，胸前都有教师牌，车上乘客看到以后都会起来给让座。在他们看来教师牺牲很大，连老年人都会为教师让座。在普通商店、超市，都有专门针对教师的打折商品，持教师证件每天都能享受到优惠。所以有人说，日本每天都是教师节。
印度：角色互换
9月5日既是印度的教师节，也是印度前总统萨瓦帕利·拉达克里希南的生日，他本人也是一位教育家。这一天，有些学校为表达对老师的敬意，教学任务被高年级的学生包下来，由他们给低年级的同学上课，而最有教学潜力的学生会被评为“最佳老师”。
芬兰：教师地位比公务员高
芬兰没有专门的教师节，但这不是说在芬兰教师地位低了，恰恰相反，芬兰的老师社会地位非常高，甚至要高于公务员。在其他节日，比如圣诞节，学生也送老师一些小礼物。
英国：华文教师节
“英国华文教师节”设立于2000年。经英国各城市的中文学校校长商议，宣布从那以后每年10月的第三个星期日为“英国华文教师节”。在庆祝典礼上，来自各地华文学校的师生带来精彩的文艺表演。
韩国：放假一天
韩国的教师节是从2006年开始，每年的5月15日，教师节老师放假一天。各学校的同窗会、女性团体、校社会团体等都会结合自身特点开展“谢恩行事”的活动，这其中，通过开展“拜访曾经的老师”这一主题活动，既表达了对教师的感恩，也加深了师生之间的情义，而且特别对于退休教师中的那些生活有困难的老教师们，表达了学生们的一份关心和想念，为他们的晚年生活带来宽慰和温暖。看了各国各有特色的教师节庆祝的方式，会发现虽然形式不同，
但温馨、感恩仍然是这个节日的主题。祝所有老师节日快乐！
United States Teacher Day and Teacher Appreciation Week
Traditionally, the Tuesday of the first full week of May is the National Teacher Day in the USA. Therefore the actual date varies from one year to another. Teacher Day is a remarkable occasion for all of us to show our teacher appreciation, whether we are students or we wish to compliment a former teacher, or our kids’ teachers. Additionally, the whole week is considered as the Teacher Appreciation Week, and lots of activities are carried out on this occasion.
United States Teacher Day and WeekThe origins of Teacher Day are murky. Around 1944 Arkansas teacher Mattye Whyte Woodridge began corresponding with political and education leaders about the need for a national day to honor teachers and show teacher appreciation. Woodbridge wrote to Eleanor Roosevelt who in 1953 persuaded the 81st Congress to proclaim a National Teacher Day that would serve to the purpose of celebrating teacher appreciation across the nation.
The National Education Association (NEA) along with its Kansas and Indiana state affiliates and the Dodge City (Kan.) local lobbied Congress to create a national day celebrating teachers. Congress declared March 7, 1980, as National Teacher Day for that year only. NEA and its affiliates continued to observe Teacher Day on the first Tuesday in March until 1985, when NEA and the National PTA established Teacher Appreciation Week as the first full week of May. The NEA Representative Assembly then voted to make the Tuesday of that week National Teacher Day.
Teachers are true heroes in our communities, who through their dedication to children, work millions of small miracles every day. And the vast majority of teachers in the United States are proud to be advocates for children, public education, and their profession. Additionally, there are hundreds of teachers and education support professionals actively serving in the U.S. military.
National Teacher Day focuses on the contributions teachers make to help children succeed in school and in life. Public schools are where children learn to be Americans. School is where they learn the Pledge of Allegiance and the U.S. Constitution. It provides students their first opportunity to vote. It is where we all learn that wherever we are from, we are united as Americans. Showing our teacher appreciation shouldn’t be limited to this week and day, but establishing a particular time of the year for teacher appreciation helps us to remember how important teachers are in society.
The State of Massachussetts has its own separate Teachers’ Day since 1976, on the 11th of September.
