Answer: The participle is "Falling".

Explanation: Participle, according to the dictionary, is "a form of verb, often ending in '-ed' or 'ing' and used with auxiliary verbs to make verb tenses, or is used as adjectives".

When it is used as a verb, it can be used as perfect tenses (combined the verb in the past tense with the verb 'have', in its present or past form) or passive voice (object of the action + verb to be + past participle + preposition by + subject who made the action). When it is used as an adjective, it depends on the context it is inserted.

In the question above, the participle is 'Falling' and it is an adjective, because it is describing the noun 'snow'.

Why would an author write an introduction to a nonfiction book?
timurjin [86]

This would be done to present the topic of the book to the reader

Explanation:

The general reason for the use of a prologue or an introduction in any work of art is to present the topic of the book to the reader.

The theme of the book even if it is non fiction would be specific as it is in most of the books so it is better for the reader to have some idea of what they are going to get inside the book from the outset.

This only has to set their expectations in the broadest sense of it and not rally give away much about anything in the actual narrative

How can you ensure that you offer a great variety of teaching methods once you are a teacher?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: To create a variety of methods you need to get to know your students first. If your students are a bit slower paced maybe you can offer one-on-one time with them or even tutoring after school. You can also even try having projects where they work with a big group. Another way to learn that may be exciting depending on the age is watching a show or a movie that shares that central idea.
