This Design and Technology video supports Year 5 teachers in guiding pupils through the decoration and finalisation of their pop-up books. It introduces the use of layers and spacers to hide mechanisms and ensure smooth movement. The video covers constructing sliders and levers, positioning background elements, and assembling the pop-up mechanism for pages three and four.

This video is part of D&T, Year 5 Mechanical Systems: Making a Pop-up Book. It provides a step-by-step demonstration to help teachers ensure pupils successfully bring their storybook designs to life.
