Your question has a simple answer. From the menu in the upper-left of the window, choose Share/Get link to shared view.

In the resulting dialog box, click the Enable Sharing button. This gives you a link to a shared view of your document which you can distribute to students. When students click on the link they will get a copy of your document to work with.
