For our last Crew meeting, we wrote a
word on a Jenga Block that describes
what crew means to each of us. Expeca-
tations: build a structure as high as we
can, keep fingers from touching any
other block, crew members can go in
any order and if it knocked over, we start
again. Matthew and Nadia are adding
their blocks. 

Jesse added his block on the tower.
