Ubuntu

Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support.

Ubuntu use gnome desktop.

Kubuntu
Kubuntu use kde desktop
http://www.kde.org/
http://www.kubuntu.org/

Xubuntu

Xubuntu is a complete GNU/Linux based system with an Ubuntu base. It's lighter, and more efficient than Ubuntu with GNOME or KDE, since it uses the Xfce Desktop environment, which makes it ideal for old or low-end machines, as well as thin-client networks.

Edubuntu

Edubuntu is a Linux distribution targeted for schools and other educational environments.

Rog131 forgot a link:

http://www.xfce.org for Xfce

Edubuntu uses GNOME, but has some KDE apps as well (at least for now).
