You said it is for first year class so probably not an advanced C++ class.

A tour of C++ by Bjarne Stroustrup, the creator of C++ himself.

IIRC, it has been written in part to emphasize the 'better language' that w=
ants to emerge from C++ (probably starting with C++11 features and above)


NOTE: Better take the offer and promulgate Ada here and there during the se=
mester than leaving those students ignorant. An experimental cinema univers=
ity teacher of mine once told us:"I do not plan to make experimental cinema=
 aficionado out of you, I only plan to seed the virus."
