Jumper wires

And a breadboard/ 3.5 power supply!

Also the diagram is just for the "COM" pin that is connected to the GND on the breadboard.

First connect all the negative pins to a row on the board,

Then get another wire and connect it to the switch.

POSITIVE

Now take a few wires and connect the positive to 1 of the pins on the display so something turns on,

Now trial and fail until you get the digital you want!

DONE

Now you are done and if you wired it right it will light up!
