~Bow Tie Guy~

Materials: red, navy, brown, green or black paint; material scraps at least
8" Xl0" in size, , glue, white poster board

Procedure:
cut large bow tie-shaped pieces from the scraps of material.

For each bow tie shape, also cute one 2" to 2 1/2" circle from the same
material.

Glue bow tie shape  on the poster board and let dry. 
DO NOT glue the circle
at this time.

Paint both hands of each student a color to coordinate with the tie fabric
and press hard to print on top of the fabric.  Again, alow time for drying.

Glue circle of material where palms meet.

it did not say, but i would cut out the poster board just larger than you

fabric....

Fold construction paper and glue on front.   Inside, put a fathers day
poem....
