Narrative:
This incident occurred as I was teaching soft field techniques to a student. Because of the high xwinds I did a go around on runway 22 and decided to land on the turf runway which did not have near as much crosswind. Due to a miscom with the student we only had partial flaps. During touchdown the aircraft bounced at which point I should have done a go around. However; I elected to continue the landing. After the second bounce I started a GA but a gust of wind pushed us toward the edge of the runway. As I corrected for this the right wingtip struck the ground; I discontinued the go around and landed without further incident.
