4. If you haven’t linked your account, click this link to follow the steps in by clicking link your account (you should only need to do this once): SAU19 Knowledge Base - Google Schoology Integration - Linking Google Accounts.
5. Choose the file to assign to the students and click on it to select it, and then press ‘Attach’. 
If you do not see the files you want to add, you must first click 'Is something missing? Add files from Google Drive'.
Then select the file you want to add and click 'Select'.
This will create a copy of the assignment for all your students like in Google Classroom. 

*** Please note that since Google Drive is a Third Party App in Schoology, assignments cannot be created and then just copied into each Course. The assignment shell will copy, but the Google Assignment Resources itself will not. This is the same case if trying to create inside Resources and then copy back into a class.
