How to enter values to group of textfields in a table using selenium

I want to enter values to a group of text fields using selenium in a table as shown below. enter image description here

I tried in this way but it didn't work and raise an InvalidElementStateException.

 List<WebElement> marks = driver.findElements(By.xpath(".//table/tbody/tr/td/input"));
    for (WebElement mark : marks) {
    mark.sendKeys("10");
    }

EDIT : In my html, the td contains an extra hidden inputs also.

<tbody>
<tr class="text-center student-mark" id="1">
    <td class="text-left">Name</td>

    <td class="activityTableBody hidden" >
        <input type="text" class="table-input 55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_classTest" 
               id="55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_classTest_556da05c699e70287ca203b0_classTest" value="0">
    </td>

    <td class="activityTableBody" >
        <input type="text" class="table-input 55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity1" 
               id="55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity1_556da05c699e70287ca203b0_Task-1" value="0">
    </td>

    <td class="activityTableBody" >
        <input type="text" class="table-input 55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity2" 
               id="55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity2_556da05c699e70287ca203b0_Task-1" value="0">
    </td>

    <td class="activityTableBody">
        <input type="text" class="table-input 55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity3" 
               id="55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity3_556da05c699e70287ca203b0_Task-1" value="0">
    </td>

    <td class="activityTableBody" >
        <input type="text" class="table-input 55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity4" 
               id="55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_activity4_556da05c699e70287ca203b0_Task-1" value="0">
    </td>

    </td>

    <td class="tableBodySA hidden" >
        <input type="text" class="table-input 55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_markSA"   value="0">
    </td>
    <td class="tableBodySA hidden" *emphasized text*>
        <input type="text" class="table-input saMark 55630af2a0c4655a1ce06fcd_markSA100" width="20%"  value="0">

You should select the input in a td which does not have class 'hidden'

List<WebElement> marks = driver.findElements(By.xpath(
                ".//table/tbody/tr/td[contains(@class ,'activityTableBody' ) and not(contains (@class ,'hidden'))]/input"));
        for (WebElement mark : marks) {
            Integer studentMark = i++ % 6;
            System.out.println(studentMark);
            mark.click();
            mark.sendKeys(Integer.toString(studentMark));
        }

This working example (from the HTML you provied) fills all the visible cells :

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("https://fiddle.jshell.net/40vr7top/show");
driver.switchTo().frame(0);

List<WebElement> inputs = driver.findElements(By.cssSelector("td.activityTableBody input"));
for (WebElement input : inputs) {
  input.clear();
  input.sendKeys("99");
}
