Is reformatting breaking information into smaller parts called packets?

No, but segmentation is what will break a data message into smaller pieces (called segments) which eventually are turned into packets.
Reassembly occurs on the receiving side by taking the segments and putting the pieces back together (like a jigsaw puzzle).
Segmentation doesn't change the content of the data; it merely breaks it into smaller, more manageable pieces for the network.
Reformatting would actually change the content of the data in some way, and would have no effect on making the data smaller for data transport.
