[comp.sys.apple2] Apple2 and IBM and Educational Software

Hello,

I hope this is the right group for my question.  If the questions
I am asking are part of "frequently asked questions" will a kind
soul direct me to an appropriate site for the answers?

Problem:

I am in the process of collecting software for Apple II's.  (For the
kindergarten and other elementary grades for the school my son
attends).

I have an IBM PC and I can FTP.

Q1: Can I download files on my IBM PC, write it out to an Apple II
    disk (on my PC) and then execute the file on an Apple II?

    What are the programs I need to have on the Apple II? ( to decipher
    the programs off the net I mean?)  In the IBM PC world, we use
    PKUNZIP, ZOO, PKUNPAK and so on.   I hear something about
    BINASCII (something like that)

(I do not have access to an Apple II; atleast for file downloading
and so on)

Q2: Can someone send me a list of sites (with FTP) containing
    Apple II programs for elementary schools?

Please e-mail your responses to the address BELOW.  I have just
moved.

Thanks a lot.  I will summarize and post if there is interest.
