Two of my computers in my home, I have installed UBUNTU 8.04 and the kids are complaining that they have no study class as before. As times goes by I will be just fine with Linux  offspring.

Well, welcome to the linux community.  I'm glad to see you're trying out 
   Ubuntu in a real world situation.  But you still haven't clarified 
what it is you are looking for exactly.

If there are things in Windows your kids are using, can you tell me what 
apps they are?  Either there will be an Open Source equivalent /or/ the 
apps will (possibly) run in Wine.

I have 13 systems at my house, each of my 4 daughters has a laptop 
running linux (they /can/ dual boot to Windows when they need to), and 
my wife is a teacher.  I'm sure there are some things available for your 
kids' needs, once I know what those needs are.
