"Community Progress?" is a one page, nonfiction passage about three community projects in Chicago; each group saw a problem, decided on a solution, and implemented it. It is followed by constructed-response questions which require students to provide evidence from the story; it includes: completing a problem/solution chart, choosing a main idea that fits all three projects, and underlining support for that main idea in the text of each section. This passage aligns with Common Core Anchor Reading Standards 1 and 2 requiring close reading, textual evidence, main idea, and summarizing.
