In addition to the stalls etc that were added along the way, I think good rudder useage ( flat turns and the like) should also be taught. At my feild, there are those that say "You don't need a rudder to fly", they never fly in the wind though. When the wind picks up suddenly ( and it does this every now and then) it is always touch and go that these people can safely land. This is simply for their the longevity of their planes though, not nescasarily the safety of others.
Those that claim you don't need to use the rudder don't really have a clue. It's just an excuse for lazyness.
