Holistic assessment is an important approach in the learning process at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) because it emphasizes the balanced assessment of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects of students. This article aims to describe the implementation of holistic learning assessment in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah, including the concepts, forms, techniques, and challenges in its application. The method used in this article is library research by examining various books, journals, and scientific articles related to learning assessment in Islamic elementary education. The results show that holistic assessment in MI can be implemented through written tests, oral tests, observations, self-assessment, peer assessment, portfolios, and performance assessments. Holistic assessment helps teachers understand students’ development comprehensively, not only in terms of knowledge but also attitudes, character, and skills. However, the implementation of holistic assessment still faces several challenges, such as limited teacher competence, lack of facilities, and the complexity of the assessment process. Therefore, collaboration between teachers, schools, and parents is needed to support effective and meaningful assessment implementation in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah.
