In this story, a woodpecker named George is the watchman for a society of animals. But what happens when he starts to lose his confidence? 
This is Part 1 of 6. 

Oh no, it’s happening… I can feel it. They’re coming...

George swooped down from his treetop lookout and glided over a harmonious society of diverse forest animals. He trumpeted an alarming bird sound to warn of an incoming attack. All the animals immediately scattered to their hiding places. 

George darted for the animal leaders’ headquarters. Zipping into the center of the gathering, almost tumbling over, George the Woodpecker announced, “Code Red!”  

The animal leaders sprang into action to execute their emergency plan.
 
Carlos the Bear was the first to charge out. It’s his role to meet the invaders head on. Confronting them at the perimeter of the animal territory, he saw them holding chainsaws, swords and knives. The terrifying brown bear let out an incredible roar to keep them back. However, as they had deadly weapons, the arrogant invaders kept inching closer and closer.  

Meanwhile, Julian the Beaver was holding onto Mary the Dear’s back as they raced through the forest. Going around the side and meeting the intruders from behind, the other two animal leaders encountered delimbers, stump grinders and log loaders. These deforesting machines are devastating for animal habitats. Working in coordination, they cut down trees, rip out the roots and stack the lumber package, ready for transport. 

Julian snuck into the heart of the murderous machinery and interfered with their engines. Because of his robust and tough teeth, he chewed through vital wires, creating malfunctions. With his role complete, he jumped back on Mary and they got away.  With the massive machines now needing repairs, the invaders retreated back to their logging station. 

Back at the headquarters, Carlos, Mary, Julian and George, the trusted guardians of the forest, gathered together to evaluate their response to the invaders.

¿Conoces estas palabras? Todas vienen del latín y se usan para hablar de una cantidad de meses determinada. Si hablas inglés, conoces "semester" pero, ¿el inglés usa el significado original de esta palabra?

Curiosidades sobre el español y su cultura

Trimestre, cuatrimestre y semestre

En el episodio de hoy te hablo de palabras compuestas, que en mi opinión son geniales, porque las palabras compuestas son palabras creadas a partir de otras dos palabras, entonces muchas veces es una palabra extra que puedes crear usando dos palabras que ya conoces, pero ¡cuidado! No siempre funciona. 

En el episodio de hoy te menciono algunas y te comento como hacemos los plurales de las palabras compuestas, ya que es algo que a menudo genera dudas en los estudiantes de español.
