Hola Robin,

Amanecer can be either a verb, meaning "to get light", for example: "Ahora en verano amanece muy temprano" (Now in summer it gets light very early) or a noun, meaning "the dawn", which is how we use it in the lesson. As a noun it can take the articles, both the singular and the plural. "Me gusta ver el amanecer."

Un saludo
