What do you mean by "the first lesson"? Just watch the video, solve some problems, and prepare a book to read (college physics/ Halliday's or Serway's or Feynman's)

Use some course notes, homework problems, Concept Tests, etc.

I believe it's Units and Dimensional Analysis.

But in my opinion... you don't need that first lesson. 'Mathematical...' chaptor would be fine to start with.
