World Teachers’ Day has been observed annually on October 5 since 1994. Over 100 countries observe the World Teachers’ Day each year, and UNESCO and Education International organize international events to celebrate the profession and to ensure that the needs of future generations will continue to be met by teachers.

Opening History is a great resource for lesson planning, and Teaching with Digital Content is just one of the many collections designed to help teachers make history come alive through primary sources.
