Living a Moral Life – Catholic Workbook (Grade 7 Religious Education)

This workbook covers the Living a Moral Life strand in the Grade 7 Catholic Religion curriculum for Ontario schools.

This workbook helps students explore the Church’s teaching authority (Magisterium) and its role in guiding Christian morality, including social ethics, marriage, sexuality, and family life. Students will examine how the Pope and bishops provide moral guidance to help the faithful navigate ethical decisions.

Aligned with curriculum expectations, this resource also helps students understand the nature of moral decision-making. Students will reflect on how their conscience can lead them to right or wrong choices and how personal virtues shape their moral character. Through thought-provoking discussions and real-life scenarios, they will explore the importance of forming a well-developed conscience.

Additionally, students will deepen their understanding of living a virtuous life as a foundation for making moral choices. By studying the Cardinal and Theological Virtues and their application in everyday life, this resource encourages students to embrace moral teachings rooted in the Gospels and upheld by the Church.
