Here are some elementary topics that come to mind

  • Continuous fractions and diophantine equations (linear and Pell equations). (Check Davenport's Higher arithmetic)
  • Geometry of numbers, Minkowski's theorem and applications
  • Quadratic reciprocity
  • Any one of Khincine's Three pearls of number theory (Dover Publications)
  • Transcendence of $e$ or $\pi$ (Felix Klein's description of these proofs is a gem.)
  • Weyl's uniform distribution theorem.
