Hi there!
1. Keyboard- shows keyboard shortcuts you can use in the rich content editor (RCE)
2. Circle with a person in it- accessibility checker that will pop up with a notification number(s) to let you know what you can do to improve the accessibility of your text
3. </> - Let's you edit the HTML of your content, rather than having the nice editor that you normally use
4. Arrow- expand the text box to take up your full screen
5. Eight dots- click and drag to expand the size of your textbox
