Copy /paste png files to Classroom and to students

How can I use classroom to copy and paste to students without using Github classroom? The school does NOt have Github and permission to use Github. Is there another way to copy and paste using Classroom? I used a thumb drive to copy the file *.png to the hard drive of 12 students to allow a few students to use my code. Unfortunately, there are 25 students in the class. We are using desktop computers for Arcade MAkecode and Makecode microbit since the computer company hired to repair all the school computers will not allow the school to use the USB ports on ANY CHROMEBOOKS because of possible hacking the software. Please let me know what other ideas I can use. I appreciate your help.

The easiest way to share a starter game with your students would be with a share link; the triple dot button up at the top will start the process

And once you click through it’ll generate a link for you – e.g. like this https://makecode.com/_Y77cWbYvoiEr (or slightly longer if you’re logged in, as that gives option for one that can be updated). This can be distributed however you can distribute normal instructions if that’s easier for your setup than with copying pngs one by one (and if the short code is a little hard for the kids to copy into url, note that going to the url will give an equivalent 20 digit code that can be easier)
