Page 41 of the Arduino project book had all of the different types of resistors found in the kit and how to tell which is which. Some of the resistors we have are still different from what the book pictures them to be, but it is usually pretty easy to figure out the resistor value.
I made an Arduino account on their website. I can log in wherever and write my code outside of class, which makes it easy to simply copy and paste it from my account into the program on school computers.
Usually when wiring the board, it is best to not put everything exactly where the diagram says it goes, since many of the pieces are either larger or smaller than what the book shows. As long as everything is connected together in a way where power can flow the way it needs to, the project will work.

Most of the mistakes I made in my code were simple spelling errors. The nice thing about the Arduino software is that it finds any errors in the code before uploading it to the board, so it can just be a little annoying.
If the board isn't working, and there doesn't seem to be a reason why, 9 times out of 10, I had just forgotten to connect it to power.
