# pass out Distribute the kits. Please keep them in the lab, with the caveat understanding that they once you have paid for them with Judi you can take them home once they have paid Judi. still waiting on (We will have the total final price (in next week, we have please bring a check addressed to get all the shipping expenses etcUC Regents).
# Connect the positive and negative rails running along the top and bottom of the breadboard. (Red wire for positive and black wire for negative). Use the connectivity setting on your multimeter to check the continuity on the positive and negative rails. (pic)
# Clip the end of the power adapter off, save enough wire with the plug to reattach it later in the semester (i.e. do not cut it off too close to the plug or you will not be able to reattach and solder it later)
# Using red and black alligator clips and short lengths of red and black wire, connect the positive and negative power from the supply to the breadboard.
# check with multimeter and bulb/resistor.
