All of your article text here. Cut and paste it from your draft. If you want to include images throughout the article, you will need to cut the text and then add a new image box, then a new text box afterward to continue with the article text.
If you want to include anecdotes, sprinkled throughout the article, you can put it in its own text box and then fill it with color, just to set it apart from the article text.

Don't forget to include a source/attribution for all images. Illustration/photo, image by XXX, etc.

You can't exactly wrap the text, I don't think, but you can insert an image and then move it up NEXT to the text you want. Or, insert it as an image on its own, in between text boxes. The key to remember is that wherever you insert an image, you can move it around on the page. Play around and you'll get the hang of it.
If it seems helpful, include a caption under or next to the image. Definitely, though, include attribution/source info under the photo. To do so, click on the image, then click the three little dots for "more options," then click "caption." You will want to shrink the text to "small" using the text formatting option.
Then, when you need to continue with text underneath it, you will need to open a new text box to do so. It can be tricky to get the spacing right, so you'll have to play around with it. This is similar to using publishing layout software like Quark and InDesign, only far more rudimentary.
The workaround for selecting a different colored background is to add an image in the background (by clicking that palette at left), then doing a search for the color you want.
If you want to include a large image on its own—or even if it's not large, but it is at least horizontal (rather than vertical, like the image above)—you can insert it in its own image box. Then, to add the attribution (and caption, if you want), you click on the image, then click the three dots for more options, then click "add caption."

Remember to change the font/text type for this. Otherwise, it will look like part of the regular article text.

References
These APA-formatted references should go in a separate text box at the end. I would change the text type/font and/or put it in a grey box or something. To make your text box grey, you click the painter's palate at left over there, then click the option you want or click "search." You can do a google image search for a color your want. Or, you can find a simple image that won't interfere with the text (like a color gradient or a watercolor).
