> + very clear and neat and well-labeled without assistance > check = includes all data and is organized, may be missing a label or need reminding of parts > - needs significant adult help to produce a line plot or is unable to do so > + no adult assistance, uses tallies correctly, and can count them by 5s accurately all the time > check = may need a small amount of help, reminders to cross them on the 5th one, can usually count the total by 5 > - not accurate, cannot count by fives
