Under the dual background of globalization and the implementation of the Compulsory Education English Curriculum Standards (2022 Edition), intercultural communication competence has become a key goal of cultivating core literacy in junior high school English. This study adopts literature review, case analysis, and survey research methods to systematically explore the construction pathways of intercultural communication competence in junior high school English. Firstly, it clarifies the concept and requirements of intercultural communication competence under the new curriculum standards, taking the "Festivals" unit of People's Education Press Grade 8 textbook as the research carrier to analyze its intercultural elements and teaching value. Secondly, it reveals current teaching problems such as fragmented knowledge, single methods, and one-sided evaluations through surveys. Then, it proposes construction strategies from three dimensions: teaching content integration, teaching method innovation, and teaching evaluation optimization. Finally, it verifies the effectiveness of the strategies through teaching cases. The research shows that with festivals as the carrier and the systematic design of "content-method-evaluation", students' intercultural knowledge reserves, communication skills, and cultural attitudes can be effectively improved, providing practical references for junior high school English intercultural teaching.
