Ok here's a couple of mine...I'll try not to get carried away here..
Most of these were taken on a Canon SD800is and SD870is but I recently upgraded to the Canon Rebel T1i and I'm not sorry I did.

The mode dial has Auto, Program, Av, Tv, and Manual settings for a reason - each one offers another set of creative options.
Auto - will be the most likely to get you the correct exposure in challenging situations
Program - kind of duplicated by Av, Tv, or manual. Basically, set whichever elements of the exposure you want (shutter speed, aperture, ISO) and it will adjust the others to get a proper exposure
Av - Aperture value. Adjusts the shutter speed to create the right exposure for the aperture selected for the desired depth of field.
Tv - Time value. Adjusts the aperture to create the right exposure for the shutter speed selected for the desired blur/stopmotion.
Manual - you must set the shutter speed, aperture, AND ISO. While this offers the most creative control, it also is the biggest risk of improper exposure.
Note, the mode dial may have other scene modes - these are just shortcuts to settings that are available in either Av or Tv. For example, "fireworks" mode is going to have a long shutter speed and a small(ish) aperture.

All True I just started using Av and i then began to better understand what the other modes where for and i learned from there. Figured it would start him off slow and i didn't feel the need to go into such depth. I would not say my suggestion was for him to only shoot Av but you are right the other modes have their places and functions just as much as Av does and you should use and know all of them.

Some of my favorite pics......
These are all with my crappy camera too......
a beautiful sunrise through the fog in my front yard.....
A disgstingly large (almost 3'') spider (a Carolina Wolf Spider) I found in my garage...have found several of these since then too....and I hate every one of them...
Making cookies....notice the glove....I love the expression...
Teasing the cat / torturing the cat
SNOW!!!!!!!!!
"take the picture already!!!"
Saw this storm coming....got out the camera.....turned out to be alot of nothing.....but for the nasty look it had, I thought we were gone-er's
Really BIG Moth.......
A year ago we made loft beds
My mom and her last remaining sibling...my uncle Tony.....My dad died 4 years ago and my mom has since lost 2 brothers and a sister and only has 1 brother left...this picture makes me get a little teary.....
My 2 boys Yuckin' it up at a wedding.......
The condensation cloud from the nuclear power plant about 15 miles away
I found my son sitting on the couch watching TV like this, so I had to get a picture....
WAY too bright for the lens....couldn't even see what I was aiming at.....really cool defect I thought....
Thought it was cool sunset...we get alot of cool sunsets
SUNSET
