I use a small pocket chart as the store. When the students roll, they take the item from the chart and put it on their list. This makes a great center or a fun activity for free time!

Thanksgiving Plate Glyph Activities – Includes manipulates to make the glyph, printable glyph key, and a classroom activity sheet for analyzing glyph data.(1-3) First the students answer questions about Thanksgiving in their family. Then they color and cut the glyph based on their answers. After the glyphs are done I suggest you display them along with the key. Then the display can become even more fun with learning. The students can fill out a sheet that asks questions about all the glyphs.
