Are these sentences correct:
1-The way he behaves at home and at school shows that these two environments are totally different for him.
2-His behaviour at home and at school shows that these two environments are totally different for him.
They sound correct to me but my problem is that 'the way he behaves at home' is different from 'the way he behaves at school'. We have two different ways of behaving/behaviours but the sentences seems to imply that there is only one. |

The two sentences sounded okay to me, and the idea I got was his behavior at home was different than his behavior at school, and because of that difference, I would be able to guess that the environments were totally different and caused him to act differently in them. |
