In addition to the basics, I'd love it if teachers included source control. It's an essential skill, yet you'd be surprised how many "professionals" still aren't using a source control system. I'd recommend Git, but introduce it through one of the many free GUI wrappers for it. The reason I recommend Git is because it gives you an opportunity to introduce trees & graphs to your students at the same time.
