Indian parents living outside India often think about the local school curriculum in comparison to the Indian curriculum that they themselves studied. While my kid is just preparing to go to the 1st grade, the news about California requiring Algebra in 8th grade prompted me to do some research. I discovered that NCERT (a body that assists the government in implementation of education policies) syllabus has algebra starting in 6th grade.

However, a much more pleasant surprise was that NCERT has made all of its textbooks available online in PDF form! They are in a reasonably navigable form with each chapter available as a separate PDF and a chapter can be opened by clicking through the table of contents. The site is best viewed with Internet Explorer.
