what you need:
a mold of some kind
- any shape will do
1 cup plaster of paris and powdered tempera paint 
here's how:mix 1 cup of plaster of paris and 3/4 cup of water
add color to your mixture using powdered tempera paint
blend well and let stand for a minute or two
pour mixture into the molds of your choice
set aside and let dry completely
once dry remove chalk from your mold
take your chalk outside and create beautiful masterpieces!
tip: the smaller the mold the more chalk pieces you get! although the super sized chalk is fun!
