1 | Mean, median, mode and range definitions
Always a good place to start to know the definitions of the terms you’re studying, so students can get a good reminder on the BBC Bitesize site.
It explains that:
- The median is the middle value
- The mode is the number that appears the most
- The mean is the total of the numbers divided by how many numbers there are (what we often call the average)
- The range is the difference between the biggest and the smallest number
It gives clear examples to help students understand, plus there are short videos and interactive questions.
Give it all a look here.
2 | Explanation and worksheets
For a more in depth explanation, this one is designed for GCSE revision, and there is a selection of worksheets to download at the bottom of the page.
Find them all here.
3 | Understanding the meaning of the mean
The language of averages is used all the time in the world around us – and budding mathematicians need to understand exactly what such terms represent.
That’s the basis of this lesson plan from Colin Foster.

7 | Correcting Clumsy Clive
This resource from Andy Lutwuche features five more questions that his character, Clumsy Clive, seems a bit confused on. These involve median and mean from sets of data, plus calculating the mean from a frequency table and estimating the mean from grouped data.
You can also throw a couple more questions in verbally (find the modal group etc) while discussing the answers and reasons why as a class.

8 | Average and range codebreaker activities
Another one from Andy is this codebreaker that asks students to complete the calculations, solve the anagrams and find the punchline for a joke.

Mean, Median, Mode, and Range slideshow
Mean, Median, Mode, and Range from Marie Nimmons
Mean, Median, Mode, and Range was created for the teaching of science to middle or high school level students. However, I believe that most 5th graders could handle this just fine. The slideshow can be used in a classroom setting or as an individual learning tool. Each of the four data analysis methods are defined. The slideshow provides the audience with an understanding of how to find mean, median, mode, and range within any given set of numbers to help access and analysis data. Happy learning!
