Similar to what you are used to in Moodle there are many familar icons on the wordpress menu. Don’t forget to use the spell check tool after you have finished your post.

Tag and Category

Add appropriate tags. These are basically keywords for each post/page you create and makes it easier for others to find your blog. Then pick the appropriate category. Categories are used to organize your blog into appropriate topics. When all is done click on publish.
