Singapore Math is typically considered to be a year advanced, so your ds would be placed quite typically by doing 1A/1B for 2nd grade. We did Singapore from K through 6th, and went from Singapore 6B right into Foerster's Algebra 1, so you may find your dc are not 'behind' at all! :D We've loved Singapore Math. Here are a few threads about it...

However, any math can be used with HOD. It is just nice to know why HOD chose Singapore as you are making your decision!
