"Google has announced that it has rebuilt Google Docs from the ground-up. The result is a massive overhaul of Google Docs, including completely redesigned spreadsheet, document, and drawing editors, group chat functionality, and the ability to collaborate with real-time character-by-character mark-up, much like Google Wave. You can preview the new changes, starting today."
"The problem is that to have a Google Docs account, you need an email address. You need it to verify your Google Docs account. Most elementary and some middle school students don't have email addresses and their parents may not want them to have one. If a teacher helps a student create an email account and the student uses that account for troublemaking or connects to the wrong people, there could be some liability issues. At least that's what scares teachers."

The spreadsheet program Excel can be used to make large posters made up of standard sized paper. This may work with other spreadsheet programs (e.g. OpenOffice) but since I've had good results with Excel, I haven't tested that yet. Let me know if you have other ways to do this, with spreadsheets or other programs.
