by taking the notes of the familiar scale - do re mi fa so la ti - and taking out the fa and the ti. This leaves you with just 5 notes: do re me so la and of course back to do.
Notice that there are 5 different natural modes of this pentatonic scale, each one beginning the scale on a different note. So you have a mode starting on do, a mode starting on re, a mi mode, a so mode, and a la mode. Each mode has a different sound.
