The classic block looks just like the classic editor, but it’s in block form. Also, custom or additional TinyMCE buttons are found in this block.
Adding block
To add a classic editor, click on the ⊕
Block Inserter icon and select the “Classic” block.

Alternatively, you can start typing /classic
in a new paragraph block, then press enter.
Block interface
Classic editor block comes with unique toolbar icons and specific user controls that allow you to manipulate the content of the block right in the editor.
This block also offers the ability to edit as HTML, duplicate, or convert to blocks.
Right after adding the block, you can edit the text you add as you would in the classic visual editor, using the tools and formatting options provided.
Sidebar settings
Clicking on the ⚙ cog icon next to the publish button will toggle the visibility of this panel.

While most blocks have specific options in the editor sidebar in addition to the options found in the block toolbar, the page break block does not have extra options to alter.
