uTheory class connected to a Google Classroom

Classes that are created by [connecting to Google Classroom](https://ghost-new.utheory.com/google-classroom) have a few slight differences from uTheory classes. 

- Choose whether the lessons and skills set to optional in uTheory appear to students in your Google Classroom.
- If you "Show optional content in Google Classroom," optional lessons and skills will appear as ungraded assignments in Google Classroom.
- If you "Hide optional content...," students will not be able to access those lessons and skills from Google Classroom.
