The right term is participial adjectives.

By the way, in your title the letter m in grammatical should've been doubled. You misspelled it.

Good luck!

Hi. Thanks Iman.

I agree with you, but I am not sure about it.

I think the first category is called present participle adjectives and the second category is called past participle adjectives.

Lets see what others say.
