I have a brood box with plastic foundation that is about half full can I add shallow supers on top using Popsicle sticks? If I can do I put the Popsicle stick on top of fame and on bottom too?

They may ignore your plastic foundation after that.  But you can, yes.

You can if you like.  I'm too lazy.

I do starter strips in the brood boxes and wax coated plasticell in the honey supers, this works well for me, as they aren't as picky when making honey.

Just use your sickles on the top, they will draw them downwards just fine.
