I am a teacher trying to create a spinner that will help me generate random numbers or words. Ideally a series of spinners would help me make random equations or fun compound words.

I’m sure that Flash could do it, but Flash is beyond my budget. Are there any other applications that would help me do this?

You could download a trial version of flash. Sadly that only lasts 30 days.
Hi,
I found this teaching resource which is a flash number spinner; there are versions for Mac and Windows - also a shockwave version
if you need Shockwave player, you can get it free here
You could make a simple version of this using web matrix. When I did the diploma in computer studies we had to create a dice game with randomised numbers this could be adapted to what you require. All of this is created using HTML/ asp.net and web matrix all this software is free to download. Also look at -Beginning dynamic Websites; for code to see if applicable
PHP is free and has a lot of excellent graphic based functions.
You would need to run it on a server though but if you install
Xitami first which is open source (free) when you install PHP it will configure Xitami to use it.
That is if you want it web based!
Otherwise, find a free version of Borlan C++ Builder or Visual basic, as most of it could be done via a point and click GUI that they come with.
I would choose C++ but it all depends on your knowlege and how long you want to take.
