Pentatonic Scales explained…

Alarm bells are ringing for me here Shaun.
You’ve been playing a shade over six months and you have moved to learning five scale patterns without knowing how to use them.
As I mentioned in your learning log, unless you can use one scale pattern, learning the others is taking steps too far into areas where things becoming overwhelming, ultimately leading to frustration.

Focus only on pattern 1.
It is called the E shape pattern also for reasons @majik explained above.
But don’t worry about that.
E is the E from CAGED.
It has nothing to do with the E string.
