Am I on the right sequence for Bigger?

My advanced 7 1/2 yr daughter is finishing 1st grade. We are new to HOD and she places mostly on the BIGGER but possibly BEYOND as well.
The reading is awesome in Beyond. I know Bigger is much more writing.
My question is this...She'll be in "2nd" grade and I want her to be able to finish all of HOD by the end of 8th grade to stay on the HOD track.If I put her in Beyond seems she'll be behind a yr.
I'm pretty sure she'd be fine in Bigger but not sure where I should start.
I'll have a K this yr as well starting LHFHG and in a couple yrs 2 more in LHTH...

We did Bigger for "3rd grade"...and that puts us finishing the guides in 8th. If you think she places between Beyond & Bigger...I'd go with Beyond. My son placed between Bigger & Preparing when I was moving him to HOD, and I'm SOO glad I went with Bigger. There is really more meat to the HOD guides than is apparent when you're just looking. He has been thriving and is challenged plenty with where we have him.

Welcome to HOD!
