When I started I did this:
Am Pentatonic
e-------------------------5-8-------------------------------------
B--------------------5-8------8-5-----------------------------------
G---------------5-7----------------7-5------------------------------
D----------5-7--------------------------7-5--------------------------
A-----5-7------------------------------------7-5---------------------
E-5-8---------------------------------------------8-5----------------
But I suggest you go up one box, down the next repeat... It forces you to "think outside the box", or think outside of one position.
ex
e--------------------------5-8-10-8---------------------------------------
B---------------------5-8------------10-8---------------------------------
G----------------5-7-----------------------9-7---------------------------
D-----------5-7---------------------------------10-7----------------------
A------5-7---------------------------------------------10-7---------------
E-5-8---------------------------------------------------------10-8---------
