My bet :
- type system without the type classes but with comparision with usual 
(c++) type systems.
- function definitions, with a hint at pattern matching
- lazyness. (see the searching a maybe list on the begineer list, it is 
a very good example).
- advanced topic : monads, type classes, etc -> just to say they are 
here and describe what they allow (state, exception), etc.
