Pentatonic Scales - Understanding Diagrams

Hello,

I had a look around the forum but couldn't find anything about this.

I'm beginning to look at Pentatonic Scales but I am really confused by the chord diagrams and don't understand what I am supposed to do with my fingers.
Below are examples that are similar to the ones used in the magazine I am learning from:



Does anyone know where I could maybe get a beginners lesson which explained all of this. As the magazine, and lessons I can find on the internet don't seem to explain what the diagram is trying to show me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can see that the numbers are the fingers to use, and the red dots are the root (but i'm not 100% sure what this means).
