I agree with Jerod about the binding part. Here's the modified list
that I would suggest (probably that was my own learning curve) :
1. Master the $ function
2. Use instance methods to perform common tasks on elements
3. Master event observing
4. Use Enumerable to manage collections
5. Master
I'd add event delegation in there.

That's a great list. It's difficult to know where to stop in terms of
teaching JavaScript as opposed to teaching Prototype; to get the best
out of the latter, you're well-served understanding the former in ways
that many (most?) still don't.
Frankly, only small comments -- the list looks good

I like TJs list. However, I'd move binding up in priority.
Despite it being a more advanced use of javascript, it's vital to
understanding the items listed as 3 and 4 (events and AJAX [callbacks]).
