Yes, absolutely teach the stick and rudder skills just like you are doing... and make sure they learn this stuff cold.
But please, while they are suffering through the torture chanber, inquire how they would handle such a situation in real life.... if the answer is anything less than declare and emergency and get no gyro vectors to either VFR or the nearest ILS above minimums then they need some more schooling in ADM.
