Heres your answer;

Plaster of paris or calcium sulphate hemi-hydrate is prepared be heating gypsum (calcium sulphate di-hydrate) at 373°K.

When gypsum is heated it loses water and turns into plaster of paris

equation:
{heat (373°K)}
CaSO4.2H2O-------------------> CaSO4.1/2H20 + 1 1/2H20

hope you find it helpful :)
