Two separate screens on one view

I used to create android app with basic layouts in android such as linear layout. I'm a student working on an android project and now my teacher want me to create an app with different graphic interface, so I got up with an idea but I don't know exactly how I can do it.

I want 2 seperate screens (let's call it Menu1 and Menu2), the Menu2 has some buttons, when I click on those button, Menu2 will become submenu1, or submenu2, submenu3. But during the transition of Menu2, Menu1 is still remain. Is there any way I can do it? I'd be really appreciate if you can give me a link to a tutorial or somethings like that.

I try to explain my idea in the picture below.

Here is the link to the picture

Yes, you can use Layoutmanager to do this, check this out...

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    LinearLayout layoutmanager = new LinearLayout(this);
    layoutmanager.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
    setContentView(layoutmanager);
    LayoutInflater inf = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    RelativeLayout layleft = (RelativeLayout)inf.inflate(R.layout.firstxml,null);
    RelativeLayout layright = (RelativeLayout)inf.inflate(R.layout.secondxml,null);
    RelativeLayout.LayoutParams relParam = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
            RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
            RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        layoutmanager.addView(layright, 250, 450);
        layoutmanager.addView(layleft, relParam);

You can use LinearLayout Vertical instead of Horizontal and make sure both the xml you use must have only relative layouts ..I hope It would solve your problem
