Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play Bb Augmented Arpeggio on the low D string at frets 0, 4, and 8, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets D on open string 6 ring, then connect it to the nearest Bb root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the Bb root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 8, 1, 8, 3, 1, and 8, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
