I just did that myself. I used an 8-pound sledge, a 4-pound drilling hammer and a mason’s chisel, and a big pry bar — but mine was a really hard brick with very hard mortar.
Keep it damp enough with a spray bottle of water to keep the dust down — and if you can’t do that, wear a dust mask. Wear shoes or boots with toe protection, and gloves. Cover electronics and anything else that the dust can harm. And have fun — demolition can be good for the soul.

Big hammer and a pry bar. Also a wheel barrow, drop cloth, and a shovel. That should be enough.
