Hello Dawn! Welcome to Steemit and thank you for being a teacher. I love teaching as well but am usually found behind a computer screen.

If you don't mind me sharing, I have found this guide on formatting helpful for posts (not my article, just one I use when formatting articles): https://steemit.com/writing/@minion/professional-tutorial-for-post-formatting-both-for-beginners-and-advanced-users

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions about Steemit. The community has been very accepting and they'll jump into help. We're all in this together!
