Has it stopped raining? HOLLY COW... thats long horn cow! I thought I was going to get swept away from the rain and wind Sunday when I went running... WOW! I met a guy years ago... he told me he was from Oregon... at that time I lived hmmm California... and he said he was from Oregon and had webbed feet.. ? Huh? I guess he was joking, or was he? 
So what about the weather here.. How much raid did we just get over the weekend?
1st and 6th Period:
Well cowboys and cowgirls.... A quick rodeo with decimals and then its on to turning fractions into decimals... its like steer wrestiling... grab those horns and hang on!
Talking about weather... it sure seemed to rain a lot!
#1) On Sunday, Portland received 0.68 of rain fall. Usually Portland receives 0.16 of an inch of rain. What is the difference between the amount of rain from Sunday and what the city usually receives?
#2) So far this month Portland has received 3.38 inches of rain. What is the place and value of each of these numbers?
#3) If for the whole month of January Portland has received 3.38 inches of rain, how much had fallen before Sunday? If you subtract 0.68 from 3.38 you will find out!
Howdy there ... young cowpokes! You did great with turning fractions into decimals... but tisk tisk... decimals also like to be fractions...Yippie! So we will be turning those pesky rattlesnakes decimals back into fractions!
