Limerick Poem Template

This downloadable one-page worksheet gives students a place to work on constructing limericks one line at a time while maintaining the rhyme pattern. Print a batch of these and leave them in your classroom to have a go-to lesson readily available. Writing limericks is all about having fun and being silly, so when you find your students' interest fading, shake things up with this activity to inspire them. As an alternative, suggest limericks as a way to demonstrate understanding for those students who are especially creative thinkers and writers. Welcome the opportunity to get a bit silly with this printable limerick graphic organizer. Check out all of our activities to help teach about limerick poetry.
