Where can I find math plans for US primary / secondary education?

Question

I'd really like to have an overview of how math is being studied in US. I would love to see how it compares to primary / secondary education in Europe (ex Yugoslav countries).

TIA

Answer 1

In the U.S., precollege education is not nearly as centeralized as it is in many other countries, so something like the following google search is probably more helpful than trying to look for some type of U.S. national standard:

http://www.google.com/search?q=math+%22state+standards%22+grade

Answer 2

Unless someone else gives a better answer, I'll select this one: Among answers to this question What should the high school math curriculum consist of?, I found a great link with correct answer to my questions: http://www.corestandards.org/the-standards

This basically does it. Sweet.

Answer 3

Someone from University of Puget Sound wrote a paper check http://www2.ups.edu/faculty/woodward/Mathematics%20Education%20in%20the%20United%20States.pdf Also check this paper http://www.nctm.org/uploadedFiles/About_NCTM/Corresponding_Societies/MathEdUS2008-Dossey.pdf

And one final link http://www.csun.edu/~vcmth00m/AHistory.html
