I would be in trouble so fast. When it came time for evolution, I would first explain the scientific method, how creationists throw around theory like it means, "Guess," when it means something else entirely in science, and how creationism does not fit into science. I'd also note that evolution does not explain where life comes from so creationists are also trying to cram their beliefs into the wrong branch of science (evolution) when it would be more appropriate for abiogenesis.
I would then hold up a fishbowl with little pieces of paper in it and invite a student to draw one. On the pieces of paper would be the names of various cultures. Whichever one the student drew, I would talk about its creationist view of things.
"Johnny chose ancient Aztec! Oh, that's a fun one. Well, according to the creationists in the Aztec culture, humankind is sentient corn, brought to life by the spilling of the gods' blood on the Earth. This is why both corn and the spilling of human blood was so important in Aztec culture.
Okay, now open your books to chapter 14, and we'll start on evolution.
