Step 1: Determine Your Position

Decide whether you will argue for or against the statement: “World War II was a continuation of World War I.” Think about and analyze the causes, course, and consequences of both World War I and World War II. Focus on the effects of World War I and the causes of World War II when determining your position.

Step 2: Plan Your Argument

Remember that a good response is one that incorporates a strong thesis (also called a position, stance, or claim), logical arguments that support your thesis, and a conclusion that ties your ideas together. Before you write out your arguments, organize your thoughts. You can use the Argument Writing Outline Template to guide you.

Step 3: Write Your Argument

Use your outline to write your arguments. Your final submission must include:

at least two to five paragraphs
a thesis (position/stance) on whether World War II was a continuation of World War I or not
supportive details from both World War I and World War II that build logical arguments for your thesis
use of formal writing style (i.e. write in the third person, avoid statements that use "I", use formal language, avoid slang)

An essay about whether "World War II was a continuation of World War I"?
I think the first step when answering an essay question should be to figure out how you plan to interpret the question. This often gets overlooked, but it's important because we need to know what we're being asked before we can offer an answer.
So it seems to me from the prompt that there are a number of directions you could take this. For instance, 'analyze the causes of WWI and the causes of WWII' suggests that maybe you could structure your answer as a compare-and-contrast, describing the first war, describing the second war, and then judging whether they were similar enough in their causes, how they were fought, and any other factors to be considered a 'continuous' event.
On the other hand, 'WWII as a continuation of WWI' could also suggest that WWI *was* the cause of WWII. To take this path, I think you'd focus more on the course of the war in WWI and how that set the stage for WWII, but not talk about WWII as much, other than how the motivations carried over from WWI, if at all.
These are just a few suggestions. You may agree with all or none of them, but I hope they spark some ideas that could help you with your essay!
