Hot wire from battery to one side of the coil.
Other side of coil goes to the points.
If yours is the diver's helmet style of distributor, the latter connection is made internally when the coil is screwed to the top of the distributor.

Did you say you are 16? If so then well done for working through this.
I wonder if anyone is nearby that could come over and help?

We will offer any assistance you need.

Sometimes (most times) it is good to take photos of what you have. It makes it easier when trying to offer advice.
