Printable Poem Starter: Write a Limerick for St. Patrick's Day

This shamrock-shaped graphic organizer helps students set up a limerick based on a few sample lines. Students are prompted on which lines should rhyme, and how many syllables each line should have. Once they are finished, the shamrocks can be cut out and displayed on a bulletin board. This activity would be a good way to transition students to write their own limericks.
