You can choose to use any of content construction but I would suggest to go on to use K2 as it is more powerful:)

If you intend to use k2 and wish to see all of core joomla’s categories+articles in listing of k2 items, Click on the tab as seen in screenshot at top-right corner. This screenshot is of K2 admin dashboard

The standard Joomla method is easier from the off but K2 is more powerful. Also be aware that the Categories/Section system is going to substantially change when the forthcoming Joomla 1.6 comes early next year. Please take a little time to read the following notes.
