Assessment could be defined as a process of describing the changes occurred over the students after participating in a teaching and learning process. The implementation of 2013 Curriculum emphasizes on activitiesbased teaching and learning process. Hence, the assessment done focused on authentic assessment which is sought to assess the students' competence in terms of attitude, knowledge and skill. This research is classified into descriptive study. This research applied concurrent embedded models in which qualitative and quantitative models were applied disproportionately. This research was conducted in two Elementary Schools namely SD Negeri 01 Simalanggang and SD Negeri Talamaua. The subject of the research was all of Elementary Schools applying 2013 Curriculum in Provinsi Sumatera Barat (West Sumatera). The results of the research indicated that theintegrated thematic learning assessment for the implementation of 2013 Curriculum in Elementary Schools in Kabupaten 50 Kota had been done fairly well. The average score obtained before mentoring activities were done was 39,06 (low) while that after mentoring activities were done was 64,78 (quite good). Based on the result, it was concluded that the authentic assessment could be done during the learning process (process assessment) and after the learning process was done (product assessment). Nevertheless, it should be realized that, in Elementary School level, building the students' characters is more crucial than developing their academic ability. © International Science Press.
