Narrative:

After preflight; student started engine. Flight was dual; extra flight to satisfy steep turns; which were outside pts on lesson 22. Took off; went to south practice area; satisfied steep turns within pts. At 2000 ft over ZZZ1 I simulated engine failure with a successful approach to ZZZ1; full stop landing. Taxied back and took off (short field takeoff) again; another successful landing. Returned to ZZZ; checked in with ZZZ; another successful landing winds were 210 degrees at 5 KTS. Checked WX with student and sent him solo; airplane had full tanks. I monitored all his steps with the radio and heard him coming back to ZZZ; so I went outside to watch his landing. He overshot the final; but brought it back at around 400 ft; which at the time the approach looked stabilized; his flap setting was full down; and he leveled the attitude with the power reducing at the same time. His rate of descent looked fine and he touched down on the main wheels. But I soon realized the flare was too abrupt and he went back in the air; up around 10-20 ft pitching down/stalling hitting nose first. I heard a popping sound with a white smoke. The plane had wings leveled until the nose dropped more; causing the propeller to hit the ground. After that the wings shook; with the right wing hitting the ground.

Narrative: AFTER PREFLT; STUDENT STARTED ENG. FLT WAS DUAL; EXTRA FLT TO SATISFY STEEP TURNS; WHICH WERE OUTSIDE PTS ON LESSON 22. TOOK OFF; WENT TO S PRACTICE AREA; SATISFIED STEEP TURNS WITHIN PTS. AT 2000 FT OVER ZZZ1 I SIMULATED ENG FAILURE WITH A SUCCESSFUL APCH TO ZZZ1; FULL STOP LNDG. TAXIED BACK AND TOOK OFF (SHORT FIELD TKOF) AGAIN; ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL LNDG. RETURNED TO ZZZ; CHKED IN WITH ZZZ; ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL LNDG WINDS WERE 210 DEGS AT 5 KTS. CHKED WX WITH STUDENT AND SENT HIM SOLO; AIRPLANE HAD FULL TANKS. I MONITORED ALL HIS STEPS WITH THE RADIO AND HEARD HIM COMING BACK TO ZZZ; SO I WENT OUTSIDE TO WATCH HIS LNDG. HE OVERSHOT THE FINAL; BUT BROUGHT IT BACK AT AROUND 400 FT; WHICH AT THE TIME THE APCH LOOKED STABILIZED; HIS FLAP SETTING WAS FULL DOWN; AND HE LEVELED THE ATTITUDE WITH THE PWR REDUCING AT THE SAME TIME. HIS RATE OF DSCNT LOOKED FINE AND HE TOUCHED DOWN ON THE MAIN WHEELS. BUT I SOON REALIZED THE FLARE WAS TOO ABRUPT AND HE WENT BACK IN THE AIR; UP AROUND 10-20 FT PITCHING DOWN/STALLING HITTING NOSE FIRST. I HEARD A POPPING SOUND WITH A WHITE SMOKE.
