What are the 2+ sample explanatory essays on an event?
Students can refer to the following sample explanatory essays on an event:
| Flag Salute Ceremony The weekly flag salute ceremony is an indispensable activity at schools across our country. This is an occasion for the Headmaster to deploy the week's tasks to all teachers and students. On Monday morning, after the review period, students carry their plastic chairs and gather in the schoolyard. They arrange their chairs in the fixed position of their respective classes. The class monitor and vice monitor are tasked with managing the class, maintaining order, and checking attire. The flag salute ceremony officially begins at 7:15 AM. The teacher in charge of the Youth Union organizes the flag salute activity. First, he requests all teachers and students to settle into position, straighten clothing, and tidy their hair. He then loudly commands "Attention" followed by "Salute the flag, salute!". At this point, the national anthem begins to play. Students raise their right hands to their foreheads in salute and sing "Tien Quan Ca" in unison. When the anthem ends, the organizer announces, "Dismissed! All teachers and students, please sit down.". Unlike other assemblies, the atmosphere of the flag salute ceremony is often quite solemn. Everyone appears serious and careful. After singing the national anthem, everyone sits back down and listens to the Head of the Student Union announce the weekly ranking of each class’s orderly conduct. Following this, the Headmaster gives remarks, instructions, and points out a few important notices. He often mentions noteworthy sports, art, or cultural competitions. Additionally, he encourages and motivates the students to strive harder and be more diligent in their studies. The ceremony concludes with reminders from the teacher in charge of the Union. He emphasizes compliance with matters like wearing the correct uniform, tucking in shirts at school, wearing red scarves, and maintaining classroom cleanliness. Lastly, before returning to class, all students must pick up waste around their seating area. Thirty-six weeks of school equate to thirty-six different flag salute ceremonies, each stirring emotions of pride as we sing "Tien Quan Ca" – "The most heroic national anthem in the world." |
| Vietnamese Teachers' Day Annually, Vietnam hosts many prominent events. Among these is Vietnamese Teachers' Day, an opportunity to honor teachers who play a significant role in our lives. Vietnamese Teachers' Day, officially known as the Day Honoring Teachers of Vietnam, takes place on November 20 each year. On this day, schools nationwide hold ceremonies to celebrate. The origins date back to January 1946, when an international teachers' organization was founded in Paris, France, named FISE (short for Fédération Internationale Syndicale des Enseignants - International Federation of Educators’ Unions). Three years later, a conference in Warsaw, Poland, resulted in the issuance of the "Charter of Teachers" with 15 chapters. The main content focused on fighting against bourgeois and feudal education and establishing a good educational system, advocating for rights in the teaching profession, and emphasizing the responsibility and status of teachers. In 1953, the Vietnamese Educational Union officially joined FISE. From August 26 to 30, 1957, at a FISE conference in Warsaw attended by 57 countries, including the Vietnamese Education Union, November 20 was designated as the International Day Honoring Teachers. On November 20, 1958, this day was first celebrated in all of North Vietnam. A few years later, it was observed in many liberated areas of the South. However, it wasn't until November 20, 1982, that a nationwide celebration of Vietnamese Teachers' Day was grandly organized. Vietnam, a country rich in the tradition of respecting teachers, should actively preserve these beautiful traditions through Vietnamese Teachers' Day. |
