Multiple "home screens" - how to get back to the FIRST of a series with Android 11?

I don't know if my multiple "icon screens" are all called "home screens" or not. But under Android 10, if I was on, say the 4th screen and wanted to get back to the first one, my primary, I could touch the home button and it would take me back to that first screen.

Now I THINK there's a swipe or gesture that can do it since on occasion when I've been at screen 3 or 4 and I swipe or hit something I do wind up back at the FIRST. But I've not managed to figure out what the needed gesture is. I also do this because from that first screen a swipe to the right brings up Google News headlines. And I liked that I could get there faster.

Anybody?
 
Thanks. And, if I can, what are those multiple pages called - are they all kind of Home Pages? I remember on the Blackberry KeyOne you can designate anyone of them including a middle, say 3rd page, at you HOME/Primary page.
 
They're referred to as homescreens. I guess you could call the default one the primary homescreen.
