NO. Gamma radiation is not easily blocked as it can pass between the electron shell and the nucleus of an atom as if those were not there at all. The only way to block gamma radiation is to have enough atoms one behind the other that have enough nucleus to block the path. Dense materials are more effective.
Glass can partially stop or attenuate gamma rays, depending on the thickness and composition of the glass. However, thicker and denser materials such as lead or concrete are more effective at shielding against gamma rays due to their higher atomic numbers. For reliable protection, specialized materials designed for radiation shielding should be used.
Aluminum is not an effective shield against gamma rays. To effectively stop gamma rays, materials with high atomic numbers like lead or thick concrete are preferred.
Aluminum can stop some gamma rays, but they are not as effective as denser materials like lead or concrete. Thicker layers of aluminum would be needed to provide sufficient protection from gamma rays.
Gamma rays can be stopped by dense materials such as lead or concrete. These materials absorb the gamma rays and reduce their energy, eventually stopping them. The thickness of the material required to stop gamma rays depends on the energy of the gamma rays.
Lead, concrete, and steel are commonly used materials that can effectively stop gamma rays. Lead is especially efficient in absorbing gamma rays due to its high density. Generally, the thicker the material, the more effective it will be in stopping gamma rays.
Materials such as lead, concrete, and thick layers of water can effectively block or absorb gamma rays. These materials are dense and provide sufficient shielding to protect against gamma ray exposure. However, complete absorption may require a substantial thickness depending on the energy of the gamma rays.

It seems that any matter will stop part of the gamma rays; to stop most of the gamma rays from passing, you would need a fairly thick layer of matter. The thickness required to block half of the gamma rays depends on the energy of the gamma rays. Just about any matter will do. For more details, check the Wikipedia article "Gamma ray", section "Shielding".

Gamma rays are gamma rays are gamma rays.
Paper is not effective at stopping gamma rays as they are highly penetrating electromagnetic radiation. Materials such as lead or concrete are more effective at blocking gamma rays due to their higher density.
