Check you grounds. Sometimes when the fan comes on, the temp sensor for the dash gauge loses the ground a little. The culprit is usually the ground on the side of the head near the headlight on your right when you are looking at the car. Try and run a direct ground to here from your battery and see if that helps.
If you temp really is rising, could be a num berr of more serious issues, but try that first.
