Any tips ?

since you know where the root notes are in Am pentatonic, the D note is directly below the A note located at the same fret position.
Example; 6th string, 5th fret = A and 4th string, 7th fret = A
5th string, 5th fret = D and 3rd string, 7th fret = D...etc.....
The E is 2 semitones (a Whole step) higher than D, so 5th string, 7th fret = E and so on. Just remember to offset everything where needed by one fret when transitioning to the key notes on the 2nd string.
Being that your progression is using the Perfect Intervals from the Tonic, just emphasize on the note related to the chord changes from the Am pentatonic scale. When changing from A to D, land on the D note and play from there in the scale, and so on. That way, you'll remain in key with the Tonic.
