Please do not yell at me for the non-educational method but....
I teach them the sentence
"It was the best / worst **** I have ever seen",
or "of my life"
Then you fill in day / party / trip etc.
Teach them 6 - 8 adjectives that can fit almost any situation (beautiful,
fun, happy, etc). 2-3 adjectives for a place. 2-3 for an experience (party,
trip).
Tell them to make use of the suggestions on the list.
You get a standard description, and just adapt it.

This has nothing to do with English, it is totally exam taking techniques.
