This paper reports an attempt to teach onomatopoeia for communication using the television program Activate Your Japanese! A class was conducted as part of a training program for teachers of the Japanese language. The results of a class evaluation questionnaire showed that participants were highly satisfied with the class and began using onomatopoeia outside of class. Thus, this indicates that the program is effective in teaching onomatopoeia for communication. Moreover, the questionnaire results also revealed the necessity of explaining the features of the video well to the participants.
