Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play E Augmented Arpeggio on the low B string at frets 1, 5, and 9, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets E on open string 6 ring, then connect it to the nearest E root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the E root positions on strings 7 through 1 at frets 5, 0, 7, 2, 9, 5, and 0, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
