Narrative:
[We were] doing a no flap slip to land; and performed a go-around at 200 ft AGL. Climbed up to 700 ft AGL and turned out like on a normal takeoff. On the crosswind to downwind turn noticed the traffic that we were following previously. We had flown right into their path. It is worth noting that the traffic did really wide pattern legs; which probably was factor in the incident. Also we never got an alert from the tower controller and we never got an alert on our traffic alert system (tis). Things that could have prevented this occurrence or to correct the situation: alert from tower or on tis; and after performing the go-around climbed out to pattern altitude before turning. Also teaching pilots to keep the pattern in closer would have also helped out this situation.
