Hi there,
You can customize your menu by going to Appearance>Menus in WP Admin. From there you should be able to rearrange the order the menus appear in and what they are called. Let me know if you don’t see this option.

Hi again. I think I did it,but I am not sure. I’ve created two different pages,besides home and about. But how do I send a post to one of those pages? I am thinking it is so easy but I just don’t get it…

Your posts will automatically show on your post page, which by default is your home page (you can change this under Customize>Static Front Page if you want to set a different page). Take a look at this section for a bit more info on how posts and pages work: https://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
As long as that configuration works ok for you, you should be good to go!

Note your detailed theme description page with set up instructions at https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/libre/ and the live demo site at https://libredemo.wordpress.com/
All relevant support docs are at http://support.wordpress.com.
You have two choices on any blog
(1) All posts on the front page.
(2) A static front page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ and all posts on a different page.By default the front page of a blog displays all published posts in reverse chronological order with the most recently published post on top. When we publish a post on WordPress software the software automatically creates the same entry in the Archives, and on the dynamic (automatically updating) Categories and Tags pages in accord with the Categories and Tags we assign to that post.
So when we create custom menu and add the dynamic (automatically updating) category pages to that custom menu we create the appearance (not the reality) of posting to more than one page.
You need to be aware that:
1. There are differences between posts and pages described here
https://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/2. There are differences between static pages we bloggers create https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ that will not automatically update, and dynamic category pages created by the software when you publish a post which will automatically update https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/.
3. We organize posts by category assignment prior to publication. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/ and when we publish posts the dynamic category pages they automatically display on are determined by the categories we assign to them.
So the process you need to use is:
- Assign Categories to your Posts. https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/
- Create a custom menu https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#1-create-a-custom-menu
- Add only the dynamic category page links into the custom menu that you want to appear in that menu https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/view-all/#adding-category-pages and arrange them as you wish them to appear https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/view-all/#changing-the-order-creating-sub-menus
- Create pages for static content, not for posts https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/
- Add any custom links and other items like static pages into your custom menu https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/view-all/#adding-custom-links and https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/view-all/#adding-pages
