The first landing was poor so the CFI deceided to practice aileron and rudder coordination along the runway centerline. During this practice the student operated the flight controls and throttle. At some point in the procedure the student did not apply enough power to maintain sufficient height above the runway. The airplane struck the runway. The CFI attempted to take control but did not succeed before the airplane struck the runway and thenbounced back into the air. The CFI was now in full control, he landed the airplane cleared the runway and taxied to the ramp.
