  Hi there,

  In order to do this you can create a Home Page by going to Pages > Add new in your Dashboard. This is a static page that would be the page your readers view the minute they visit your site. After you published that, create another page titled Blog, Posts or whatever you want if you want a separate page with all your posts. Leave this page empty, but publish it.

  Then go to Settings > Reading in your Dashboard. At the top where it says Front Page displays: select a static page and set the the Home page you just created as your Front Page, and the Blog or Posts page as your Posts page.

  Finally, if you want to create a Custom Menu you can by going to Appearance > Menus in your Dashboard. Please view the link for further instructions.

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!
