Student pilot began his first solo in make and model and began to make an approach to do a touch and go. The flare was early and resulted in a hard landing and bounce, the PIC then overcorrected with a nose down adjustment and bounced again. The PIC at this point applied full power the nose pitched up and stalled. The aircraft landed on the nose gear snapping off the front landing gear.
