In the Right Mode

Given four sets of data, zombie-loving mathematicians find the mode, range, mean, and median for each set. The sheet is more challenging if calculators are not used; but the data set with large numbers may require a calculator.

In this data and statistics activity, students find the mean, median, mode, and range of 4 different sets of data. Next, students solve 1 word problem where they find the mean.

Explore the concept of mean, median, and mode with pupils. They estimate the length of a string or the number of M&M's in a jar. Then find the mean, median, and mode of the class' estimates.

In this mean worksheet, middle schoolers examine given information and determine the mean, mode and median of data.  This one-page worksheet contains 10 problems. Answers are provided.

Middle schoolers compute measures of central tendency.  In this range, mean, median and mode lesson, students gather information on the internet, organize the data and then compute the measures of central tendency.  They create...

In this online math worksheet, find the mean, median, and mode in a variety of sets of data. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into difficulties. A terrific teaching tool!

How many types of average are there? This video describes how to determine the mean, median, and mode of a set of numbers. Each type is worked through using one data set and the instructor shows the procedure for determining each.
