The purpose of this thesis is to try to conceive an elementary and junior high school education program designed to nurture a point of view that tries to reconstruct every day from a fresh perspective. This theme includes the concept of reinterpreting: reviewing or tasting familiar things from a different viewpoint than usual. Our perception tends to become automated by customs, and it is useful to try to regard objects as fresh once again.
As a result of this research, this program designed from the cognitive process and the process of understanding humor and expression is effective to overcome the existing schema, which is the background of the automation of sensitivity, and to "reinterpret" the familiar world. And in that sense, this paper concluded that this program can be one model of visual literacy education that could be required in Japan in the future.
