Pumpkin Glyph Detective
Students make their glyph based on their own personal experiences. Students write their names VERY small in the middle of their pumpkin and paste the small version of directions on top of their name. Next pass out the pumpkins randomly to the students. Using the "Detective" sheet (that you have pre-typed their names on) students must use the process of elimination to figure out whose pumpkin they have.
