September 28 Day is stupid questions
On September 28, schoolchildren, students and teachers celebrate ASK A Stupid Question Day - a day of stupid questions. To avoid fear of asking questions, no matter how stupid they seem - this is the purpose of this holiday.
The day of stupid questions originated in American schools in the mid-80s, when teachers decided to encourage students to ask any questions during the lessons. The official date of the holiday is September 28, but it is often celebrated on the last school day of September.
Fear of asking questions and clarifying incomprehensible moments is the problem that teachers face the world. Schoolchildren and students often decide not to ask a question so as not to look stupid before classmates or teacher - even if they were not clear.
Questions and answers are an important part in education, so it is so important to create an atmosphere when students cease to experience awkwardness and fear. The day of stupid questions is intended for this: everyone can ask even the most ridiculous question - and get an answer to it.
