Shakespeare Limericks: Fun Trivia Quiz

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Play around with limericks with this resource! This quiz asks participants to identify the name of the play that goes with each limerick. Although it might not be the best tool for your class, the idea is creative. You could create a Shakespeare limericks assignment and use these for samples! Your poets could write limericks about the plot or characters of whatever Shakespeare play your class is studying.
