How the USSR instilled a love of LEARNING in children (POSTERS)
Soviet education played a key role in the “creation of a new man” and the construction of a successful socialist society. We’ve put together a selection of posters that motivated Soviet children (and adults) to take the issue seriously.
"Literacy is the path to communism."
“To have more, you need to produce more. To produce more, you need to know more.”
“I will be a metalworker! Young men and women! Let us help create powerful labor reserves for the Soviet state. Enroll in vocational, railway, factory and plant training schools.”
“Let us be builders!”
“Wear it with honor!”
“Join the marine modeling clubs! Get ready to become shipbuilders!”
“Learning is a help to work!”
“Get ready for a life of work – Learn, invent and build!”
“Love the book – the source of knowledge.”
“Hello, alphabet – the first teacher, dear school, amazing world!”
“I will become a sheep breeder.”
“The voice of wise books is heard everywhere.”
“I want to know everything, to be able to do everything in life, to be useful to the Fatherland!”
“Have a good journey to the land of knowledge!”
“We have the right path: from school to vocational school, from vocational school to the working class!”
