It depends on which paper is the artist comfortable with, and the type of the sketch. However, I personally recommend you to use A4 size Ivory sheet.

Do drawing classes also have you make your own art, instead of just drawing what's around you?
Of course. First we practice drawing which helps us recognize and draw the form of all the things around us. It is those forms that later shape our art practice.

Sketches are often quick and loose. This allows the mark making to be fresh and open. when you begin to line the work you are making the marks all the same weight and it takes the freshness away from the original sketch.
