Activity created for Maped Helix by Valérie from the Allo Maman dodo blog.
You will need
- Paper plates
- Scissors
- Highlighters
- Glue stick
Steps
Step 1
Turn the plate over so that it’s facing down on the table. Start decorating the bottom of the paper plates using the highlighters. Draw strips from the middle of the plate to the edge.
Step 2
Choose your design: Plain stripes, polka dots or alternating pictures and patterns – it’s up to you!
Step 3
Carefully cut a circle out of the middle of the plate to create the shape of the frisbee. Do the same with the second plate.
Step 4
Turn the plate face up and apply glue all around the edge.
Step 5
Place the other plate face down on top and press down to create your frisbee.
Step 6
You can make several frisbees with different patterns and colours!
Step 7
Now you’re ready to play! Stand facing the other player, a few meters away, and throw the frisbee, holding it horizontally. It’s a slight movement of the wrist that will make the Frisbee fly straight ahead!
