The results of the research show that: 1) SA meets three indicators namely being able to write information that is known and asked, draw pictures, and do calculations; 2) SI fulfills four indicators which are able to write information that is known and asked, draw pictures, do calculations, and apply mathematical symbols and rules in accordance with the intended problem; 3) SG fulfills three indicators namely being able to make drawings, do calculations, and write symbols and mathematical rules; 4) SR fulfills two indicators namely being able to write information that is known and asked, and doing calculations.
