The student pilot stated that on the day of the accident prior to the accident flight, she flew with her flight instructor on two separate flights. During both, she performed touch-and-go landings. Following the second flight, her instructor exited the airplane, and the flight departed and remained in the traffic pattern where she performed one touch-and-go landing. The flight remained in the traffic pattern and during the second touch-and-go landing, the airplane touched down and bounced two times. After the second bounce she reduced power and lowered the nose but the airplane then bounced again. Following the third bounce, she heard the stall warning horn and the "nose dropped." She then heard the propeller contacting the runway. The student's certified flight instructor (CFI) reported the student's first approach was similar to the landings she had performed when he was in the airplane, and the approach for the second landing appeared good. He noted the flare was good and for some reason, the airplane bounced two times then touched down collapsing the nose landing gear.
Probable Cause: The student pilot's incorrect recovery following a bounced landing resulting in a hard landing and collapse of the nose landing gear.
