Iwould suggest checking out Claris Works, it is now cross
platform with Windows and is extremely easy to learn and use. I
meanif you don't do business oriented spread sheets, why buy
an expensive dedicated program like Excell ?  Plus I believe the
Apple Education peolple could point you to some usefull resources
towards using it in the classroom.  They are great that way.
