Teachers can assign lessons and activities to any active class. This includes Amplify Classes, Google Classes, and classes synced from Clever and ClassLink. If you don’t have any classes, then you need to create or import a class before you start assigning.
You can assign from the curriculum through any Amplify Desmos Math lesson or activity.
If your district enrolls through a third-party enrollment method (such as Clever, ClassLink, GG4L, or OneRoster), your classes should be synced from your enrollment method.

Single session codes
If you have students that aren’t in your classes, you can use a single session code to invite students to join a lesson or activity. The students can join as a logged-in user or join anonymously with a temporary handle.
Any lessons or activities delivered with a single session code will not be reflected in Administrator Reports.

Click Create single session code.
Single Session Invite Codes options display.
In the Session Security Settings, you can require that students sign in so they can save their work and you can view their names.
If you don’t require student sign-in, they can join the activity anonymously but can’t save their work, and you can’t view their names.
Share the code with your students. You can also copy the invitation link to share the code through your preferred student-contact method.
Codes are not case sensitive.
Students: joining with a single session code
If students are already logged in, they can enter the code on their Student Home.
If students are not logged in, they can go to learning.amplify.com/join/ and enter the code.
Students enter the code and click Log in.
If the code is a valid single session code, and students are logged in, they will land on the activity page, where they can start the activity, sign out, or join anonymously (if applicable).
If students enter an invalid code, confirm the code and have them reenter it.
