UIIb won Year 2000 Berlin Language Contest and Year 2000 National Competition…
In October 1999 class UIIb (10b) decided to participate in the Berlin language contest. After discussing various projects they decided to go on an imagined trip around the world. In 5 groups they wrote diaries about their journeys and handed them in in February 2000. They also wrote sketches about their experiences abroad.



With their diaries and their sketches performed on stage they not only won the 1st prize in the Berlin language contest but also the 1st prize of the student jury in the national competition in Dresden. Congratulations !
Here is what the students did:

We imagined the following situation:

• All of us have just graduated
• Our parents have given us quite a lot of money for our graduation
• We want to do something all of us have dreamed of

So we decided to go on a trip around the world.

• The trip should last about 3 months.
• We'd like to see at least 2 different continents.
• We hope we are going to get to know a lot of people.
• We also hope that nothing dangerous happens on the way so we'll return home safely.
• And have a big party where everybody gets together again.
