This practical data handling investigation gives pupils real data to work with while applying mean, median and range in a meaningful context.

Pupils collect a set of measurements, record their results, and use the data to calculate and compare averages. The activity encourages reasoning, discussion and problem-solving, making it suitable for use as a main maths lesson, enrichment task or cross-curricular investigation.

Designed for Upper Key Stage 2, this resource works well indoors or outdoors and can be completed over one or two sessions.
