Mean, median, mode and range are four different ways of describing the same data set — and this lesson helps students tell them apart and calculate each one confidently. Built as a 25-slide interactive lesson, it gives Year 6 students structured, repeated practice at exactly that.
Interactive activities walk through calculating mean, median, mode and range from real data sets, with instant self-marking feedback.
Understanding when to use mean, median, mode or range — and how to calculate each — is core Year 6 statistics. This resource covers the Year 6 National Curriculum requirement to calculate and interpret the mean as an average, directly building toward KS3 data-handling work.
Sports statistics, weather averages, exam results — mean, median, mode and range appear constantly in the data pupils encounter outside school. Calculating all four from the same data set, rather than in isolation, helps pupils see why a data set sometimes needs more than one kind of average to describe it properly.
