LeVasseur students in Mrs. Domanzsky and Miss Matyskela's class made gingerbread houses last week. So fun!

Thank You!
Ms. Bicknell, LeVasseur Principal
LeVasseur thanks Bourbonnais Upper Grade Center students for helping last week with an art project!
Each Quarter our 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade students participate in the Fitnessgram Pacer Test. This test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The goal is for the students to pace themselves and complete as many laps as possible before they stop. These six students have currently earned the most laps in their grade level. Along with receiving an athletic achievement award they get their names on a poster in the gym until the next test is completed. Great job students!!!
Wild West Day at LeVasseur was a huge hit with our second graders!
PARENTS: This is a reminder that the 2020 Illinois Parent Survey opened on Oct. 24, 2019. Link for parents to take the survey:

We need your input so please take time to complete this survey. Thank you!
LeVasseur Parents: We would like all parents to write a small positive message that your child will read prior to taking their January MAP tests. There will be a display at parent/teacher conferences for you to write the letter or you can write a letter and bring it to your child's conference. Writing a few sentences about how you love them and want them to do their best will contribute to your child's great attitude when they read the letter right before taking the test. Thank you! Your child's teacher.
Mrs. Moulton showed Ms. Wasnea’s class a new tool to use on their Chromebooks. The students worked on Google Slides to build a turkey. The students used copy and paste to add silly features to their turkeys!
LeVasseur first grade classes salute our veterans! An actual veteran was invited in to speak to the classes about her experience being in the United States Armed Forces. What a great experience for our students!
More LeVasseur 4th and 2nd graders working together to write poetry for local veterans. LeVasseur appreciates our veterans!
LeVasseur students enjoyed their trip to the museum last week!
Mrs. LeSage's 4th grade students are buddies with Mrs. Martin's 2nd graders. Yesterday students watched a short video on Veteran's Day, brainstormed words that describe Veterans, and then created acrostic poems to give to a Veteran that we know.
On Friday, Ms. Bicknell was invited by a student to be a guest reader in Miss Delmore’s class!
Last week, Miss Delmore’s first graders at LeVasseur learned about measurement using a real pumpkin! They measured the height, circumference, weight, and counted the number of seeds together. The total number of seeds was 566!
Ms. Johnson had a Zombie escape room for Halloween! The students solved math problems and decoded clues to find a cure as classmates turned to zombies one by one and had to be quarantined! Jaxon saved the day solving the last clue with only one minute left!
Dear LeVasseur Families,
The third grade field trip to Buckley Homestead, that is scheduled, for this Thursday, has been cancelled. The anticipated cold temperature, rain, and possible snow is preventing us from going. We are in contact with Buckley Homestead and working with them to reschedule the trip for the Springtime. Thank you for your understanding!
We are WAY too bright for drugs at LeVasseur! We are sending a message during red ribbon week to say NO to drugs!
Mrs. Gonzalez's 1st grade class did a special activity with Mrs. Moulton on the Chromebooks. Students worked on their copying and pasting skills to build their own Jack-O-Lanterns.
Such fun at the Pumpkin Patch last week! Mrs. Domanszky, Mrs. Haug, and Miss Matyskela really went all out to make this a super great time!
LeVasseur Parents: Students who ride bus 11 will be delayed getting home today due to a driver shortage. Thank you for your understanding.
