Below are some guidelines for creating a name for your packet:
- The name should be descriptive in a way that people can understand.
- Do not include the packet number as part of the name (this will be added in a later step).
- Do not include information that is already captured in the curriculum’s name (e.g. grade, subject, region)
- The name should be unique (e.g. for a two-day lesson, include “day 1” and “day 2” in the name to distinguish them).
- Each book of a multi-day IA should be entered as a separate packet if they are separate PDFs, and the book # included in the packet name.
- Do not include the date of administration, since this information could change and/or vary by region or school.
