Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play A Major Arpeggio on the low Eb string at frets 1, 6, and 10, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets C# on open string 4 ring, then connect it to the nearest A root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the A root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 6, 1, 8, 3, 11, and 6, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
