Outside the Box – Juliann Talkington
On Friday, the 2nd grade class from the Panama City Renaissance School visited James Auto Center for a hands on lesson about how car brakes work. James Morris, owner of James Auto Center and radio talk show host of “Ask the Master Auto Technician,” spent the early afternoon showing the children brake disks, brake fluid, brake pads, and the details of how a car stops when the driver puts pressure on the brake pedal. The field trip was a the perfect conclusion to the classroom study of brakes and a great way for the children to learn about how the mechanical part of our world works.
