Never had a class where they waited until the end for questions. They'll raise a hand right away or just interrupt me. And I usually stop and check along the way anyhow.
In this particular case, the student was apparently sleeping with his eyes open. He didn't know what had been going on for the previous half hour or so.
(Thankfully, no longer a new teacher, I don't talk for half hour stretches any more.)
Volume 1 has three short stories of my collected Lore. Paranormal angel romance, followed by snarling devil dogs.
Volume 2 has four short vampire tales.
Volume 3 has humorous fantasy.

Mr. Burke is a high school math teacher in New York as well as a part-time writer, and a fan of science-fiction/fantasy books and films.
He started making his own math webcomic totally by accident as a way of amusing his students and trying to make them think just a little bit more.
Unless otherwise stated, all math cartoons and other images on this webpage are the creation and property of Mr. Chris Burke and cannot be reused without permission.
Thank you.

I feel like this happens because students have questions but are conditioned to "save them for the end."
