Shooting stars are actually objects burning in the Earth's atmosphere. The name "shooting star" originates from ancient times (before advanced scientific investigation) when these burning meteors were though to actually be stars shooting across the night sky. Those that survive and crash onto the Earth's surface are then called meteorites.
A star is a great ball of hydrogen that can maintain a fission-reaction and emit heat and light. Our sun is such a star, and other stars are extremely far away.What is often referred to as a "shooting star" is not a star, but a small stone or just a particle of dust entering the earth's atmosphere and burning up. This is what creates the streak of light on the sky. It starts burning because of the great friction it meets when it travels fast through the atmosphere. The correct name for this phenomena is a meteor.A meteoroid is the name of a stone that floats freely in space (it can become a meteor if it is attracted by the earths gravity), while a meteorite is the name of a meteor that has reached the earth's surface without burning up completely.

Asteroids are large pieces of rock, many big enough to be considered to be small planets. Shooting star is an incorrect name for a meteor. They have nothing to do with stars. They are small pieces of rock or dust that burn up in our atmosphere as they go through it. We seem them as something streaking across the sky in seconds.
