Best Practice for one teacher to monitor another teacher's class in Classroom

There are several ways to allow a teacher to monitor another teacher’s class without assigning them as a substitute. You may designate the teacher as a Co-Teacher for the class, or you can grant the appropriate permissions through the system’s settings to enable the teacher to view and monitor other teachers’ classes.  You may also assign a teacher as a substitute teacher for the original teacher.
