Just add those 2 directories, and don't mention /home:

/home/path/to/dir1 R
/home/path/to/dir2 R

If you already have a rule for / in your conf, exclude /home by:

!/home

You might have to play a bit with the order of those lines to get it
right. My first guess would be:

/ R
!/home
/home/path/to/dir1 R
/home/path/to/dir2 R

Sincerely,
