For 5-mans, you usually want the same glyphs as raiding. You have a little more freedom because losing a few dps doesn't matter much in 5-man.

For soloing, go for things that reduce mana costs and increase dps for spells you use all the time. Just be careful to look at the downsides. Frostbolt glyph will be horrible for soloing. Blast wave glyph will also not be so good for soloing. The knockback helps reduce damage you take from melee.

Evocation, water elemental (3-4 extra ticks of mana from him), fireball, and arcane blast are some of the good ones. Look at the full list of mage glyphs on wowhead. Then just choose ones that fit these ideas.
