Activities Autism

I work with a 3 year old boy with autism. What fun can I do with him in a pool?
This a curriculum. I work with a boy aged 3 to Autism. He can talk but he does not communicate much. What are good, activities I can make fun with him in a pool, to find water and aclimated and himself a very good time. Also, how can I help them work on language skills and pragmatic?
I'd kick and count his kicks. Or you could make a game where the projections that has to say a word before it can splash, and you have to say before you can splash. Maybe even make a game of rhymes. May begin. "Dog" splash. You-"log" splash-it "fog" spray and so on. Maybe sing a song while paddles around, then he must swim with the beat. If he likes to jump in, and thats an option, have each hop count aloud. Or you could get toys pool, those who leave water in the holes, a shovel, a bucket, a toy squirt. Ask him to choose the toy that made these things. Can you drop the water like the rain? should choose the sieve. can you make water spring from something? must choose the toy squirt. this kind of thing. you can work on the concept from far and near, left and right of an object. Make him throw something away. have the right to discard. The pool overlooks you really great learning environment!
