Answer 1

Hey there I'm in seventh grade :)

I don't see why you need to skip more than a line or two when going to the next question. However, normally when you're writing an essay you're supposed to make each question separate, each on a separate document and each with its own topic, but you were assigned to make them together then skip 2 lines for the next question. When I write essays they are anywhere from one to three paragraphs but use your judgement as far as how much material is covered, etc.  

Answer 2

You don't need to skip a lot of lines or start a new page if you either copy the question or entitle your answers in such a way that the teacher knows which question you're answering.

The length of your essay answers depends on how complex the questions are. I would say you need a minimum of three paragraphs, and introduction, a body and a conclusion. If you have a lot of information to cover, you may need five or more paragraphs. Don't forget, your introduction and your conclusion are short, three to four, sentences long.

Make your answers as long as you have to, but get in and answer the questions without a lot of un-needed words.

Answer 3

Here's how I would set it up:

1.) Question one topic

{1 to 2 spaces}

Introduction (1 paragraph)

Body of Essay (usually 1-3 paragraphs)

Conclusion (1 paragraph)

{5 spaces}

2.) Question two topic

{1 to 2 spaces}

Introduction (1 paragraph)

Body of Essay (usually 1-3 paragraphs)

Conclusion (1 paragraph)

Answer 4

well when your writing an essay ive realised that u always have to repeat the question in the answer, and make them at least about 4-5 lines long. thats about the average, and leave about a space between them good luck

Answer 5

if its two questions youre to do different essays on, then do the essay starting on one page and when youve done one, do the other in the same file, but hit enter until you are the start of a new page.

if the two questions are to be answered in one essay, you simply write an essay on the two questions in the one essay.

and if you get it wrong, your teacher will help you out... id be more specific if i knew the Q's man but dont post them, that could give away your identity if someone in your class sees it... just do your best and what you think is right and youll be fine :-)
