She is playing with my grade by only inputting assignments I did horrible on

I got into an argument with my art teacher and now she is playing with my grade by only inputting assignments I did horrible on.

1.Does "play with my grade" mean "deal with my grade in a careless way"?

2.What does "input assignments"mean? Why does the writer use "I did horrible on" instead of "I did horribly on"?

Thank you for your time and help!

2b. "I did horrible on" is not good English. It should be "horribly".
