During halftime of middle school games (generally a student may be doing the book), I make sure each book agrees with the other. I color in the half time running score. I also color in the personal fouls.

For your case, I would start counting team fouls from that point on and not try any guessing as to how many you had called.
We draw a vertical line after any existing fouls. It's worked for over a decade. . . I also have the SK write down the arrow's direction.

For FIBA games, since fouls reset every quarter, I ask them to use a different stroke each quarter.
