Pieces of ice falling from clouds is called snow or hail.

Snow falling from the sky is called snow. THe act of snow falling is called snowing.
That process is called precipitation. It occurs when water droplets or ice crystals in the clouds become too heavy to remain aloft and fall to the ground under the influence of gravity. This can take the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail depending on the atmospheric conditions.

Ice crystals falling from the sky are not branched like snowflakes, but tend to be more needle-like. They weigh less than snowflakes, and therefore can seem almost suspended in the air. They often cause strange optical illusions as light reflects off them; at night, light appears to shoot straight up into the sky like a pillar. They are also responsible for "sun dogs", the rainbow like bars that can appear on either side of the sun.

They are called falling stars because the narrow streak of light looks as if a star is falling from the sky.
