3rd Grade Poetry Worksheets

Ages 8-9 · 5 sub-topics · Free previews · Print-ready PDFs

These poetry worksheets cover 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade, ten sheets for each grade, and each sheet's description names its grade so you can pick the right level or move a child up or down. Students read, plan and write five kinds of poems: acrostic poems, haiku, rhyming couplets and cinquains, plus close reading of original poems. The sheets grow from counting syllables and finding rhymes to similes, rhyme schemes, mood and theme, and every sheet with a right answer has an answer key.
