Participles are sometimes confused with verbs because they are made up of:
1) verb + –ing form . This is called PRESENT PARTICIPLE and it has the function of an adjective (not a verb)
Example: The singing bird is beautiful. The word “singing” modifies the noun “bird” and this sentence can be rewritten as “The bird that sings is beautiful.”
2) Verb+ ed / past participle form. This is called PAST PARTICIPLE and it has also the function of an adjective as it provides information or qualities of a noun.
Example: The wounded dog was crying all night. The word “wounded” modifies the noun “dog” and this sentence can be rewritten as “The dog which was wounded was crying all night”

I hope it helped-
from two stones clapping together. There was no one else around. Em thought that the wind was making the sound, but when she looks outside not a single breeze is in sight. She gets so scared she screams, but no one comes. They say if you listen closely at night you can hear the two stones clapping together and Em screaming.
