  Pages we bloggers create are static and are for content that rarely changes. They sit outside of the blog structure and do not automatically update. You cannot post to multiple pages in any blog. There is only one main page for posts in a blog and all posts will display on the main blog page. There is no way to exclude posts from the main posts (blog) page.

  With WordPress, you use categories to organize posts into subjects and then you can add those dynamic Categories pages created by the software to your navigation using a custom menu.
