Sharing Statistics with Lithuania

Secondary school students begin their study of the results of the hydration survey. They share the first tables summarizing their graphs with Lithuanian mates of "Saltinio" progymnasium Taurage,
Next week they will do the same with the collaborators of the neighboring country, Portugal.

Do they drink water?(Tenerife)

From IES Realejos (Tenerife, Spain) 

We are trying to answer this question properly through a drinking and hydration habits survey. In the picture you can see our students doing the survey to their peers using tablets. So far, we have only collected the data and in a few weeks we will have enough information to know more about us and we will be ready to make a new question: 

Is it the same in other places or countries?
