My 4th grade teacher really thought I was something special I guess. We used to have to do this thing on the computer called MAP testing where you'd have like some odd number of questions over like reading, math, science, and writing. There would be like around 50 questions each on each subject so you'd take them on different days. You were only supposed to take it once but my fucking teacher kept making me retake them. Like my scores were pretty good, above average but not the best, but my damn teacher made me take the math one 3 different times and these tests take like an hour to finish so it was very time consuming and horrible for a fourth grader.

The first time I showed her my score and she wrote it down and then the next day she took me aside and said "you're going to retake it because I know you can do better". So another hour goes by of me taking the test and missing class work then I show her my score(literally the same exact score as the first time) and she says "I know you can do better so we are taking it again tomorrow". And the next day I went fucking HAM on that test I was triple checking my god damn answers and using scratch paper for problems that didn't even need it and I got like a 250 instead of a 245 and she says " see I told you that you could do better if you try".

Not really a punishment but still horrible. Imagine sitting at a screen for an hour doing some dumb ass math for some shit that doesn't even matter really. Then you have to do it two more times for no reason. Really fucking hard for a fourth grader to sit still and focus for an hour on a test they just did the other day.

This teacher also sent me to the principals office for not trying hard enough on some work later in the year.
