Make statistics revision engaging with this Mean Maze activity, ideal for KS3 Maths, Year 6/Year 7 transition, revision lessons, starters or independent practice. Learners move through the maze by calculating the mean of each set of numbers and following the correct answer to reach the final FINISH box. The maze format encourages accuracy, self-checking and problem-solving as pupils must choose the correct pathway at each step.
The worksheet includes a range of data sets, some producing whole-number means and others producing decimals (e.g. 7.75, 8.5, 9.25), giving students valuable practice in addition, division and handling non-integer solutions. It also includes “No mean” traps, challenging learners to recognise when a calculation is not possible.
This is a perfect printable, low-prep activity for classroom use, homework, cover lessons or quick-fire revision.
