Breadboard, half size, 400 points

Breadboard is a way of constructing electronics without having to use asoldering iron. Components are pushed into the sockets on the breadboard andthen extra 'jumper' wires are used to make connections.

The middle section of the board has two columns, each with 30 strips ofconnector, like the one pulled out and to the side of the breadboard. Theseconnect together anything that is pushed through from the front into one ofthose five holes. On either edge of the board are much longer sections of clipthat join together the columns of holes marked by the blue and red lines onthe front of the breadboard. These are generally used for GND (blue) and 5V(red).

There is a red jumper wire going from the 5V socket on the Arduino to one ofthe long power connectors on the breadboard. The resistor has one lead pushedinto one of the holes on that 5V red column. The resistor's other lead goes toone of the rows on the right hand side of the board in the center of theboard.

The LED spans another connector on the same row as the resistor lead(connecting them together) and the blue (GND) long connector on the right ofthe breadboard. This long blue GND strip is connected near its top to the GNDconnection of the Arduino.
