That'll work. I start my slips by putting them in a clear plastic jar and suspending it from the lip of the container with toothpicks and putting it in the windows of my kids' bedrooms so they can watch the slips grow. I transplant them into containers with potting soil and then harden off outside before planting.

Thanks for the advice! I probably wouldn't have thought to harden them before transplanting.
Do you need to cut the sweet potoes up?
no, you do that for Irish (white) potatoes. Keep them whole in the container and pluck off the green offshoots when they are 6"-12" long. Thanks!
