newspaper
clear, light easily passes through it. It is easy to see other things through it
translucent
light that bounces off an object
construction paper
clear window
transmits light, but not as clearly as transparent things. More difficult to see through. It disperses much of the light.
opaque
muddy water
It reflects or absorbs light, and it cannot be seen through
