This study aims to examine the views of sixth-grade students, parents, and teachers regarding family participation in the distance learning process. A multiple case study, one of the qualitative research methods, forms the basic design of the study. The study group consists of five mathematics teachers, ten students, and the parents of these students, selected using maximum diversity sampling. The data for the study were obtained through interviews. An ethical committee approval was obtained prior to the research. The data obtained were analyzed using in-depth content analysis. The findings showed that family participation was considered important by all participants, but participants' knowledge about implementing family participation in distance education was not sufficient. It was also found that the activities students carried out with their families contributed to their happiness, the development of their cognitive and affective skills, and had a positive impact on their attitudes towards mathematics lessons. These findings suggest that parent-student activities should be increased to involve students' families in the education process, and that family participation should be incorporated more comprehensively into education programs in general. In this context, it is recommended that parents and teachers receive training on family involvement.
