A PARENT views Google Classroom as a place to see what is going on in their child's classes. Parents will NOT join their child's Google Classroom. Parents will receive an email notification (daily, weekly, or never) about what is going on in their child's class (not a code). Those items could be an announcement, assignment, or question for the class. The screenshot below provides a sample email notification of what a parent might get from their child's Google Classroom.
