Grade 11 HRF3O: World Religions and Belief Traditions in Daily Life

The Ontario Grade 11 course HRF3O has six strands: research skills, commonalities and concepts, community, actions, sacred stories and writings, and dimensions of the sacred. The museum maps strands B to F, and only what its records say about Islam; strand A (research skills) is not mapped.
