There are several materials you can use. Plastic assignment folders make an excellent fin because they are light weight and more durable than paper. Corriflute (Correx) is also a great material as it to is sturdy. (i am assuming you are building a 2 liter water bottle rocket) Avoid using paper and card board as the water can damage the fins making them anti-productive.

What is the best fin size for a 2 liter bottle rocket?
There does not appear to be a "best" size. It depends on a number of factors, to include the bottle used (brand of drink & manufacturer), type of rocket, distance aiming for. One common element to consider is drag. Larger fins have greater surface and mass which will directly affect the altitude your rocket can reach.

What is the difference between a long rocket fin and a short rocket fin?
A longer fin has increased aerodynamic drag. The geometric relationship between the drag caused by the fins and the center of gravity of the rocket determine the stability of the rocket in flight. Less aerodynamic drag means the rocket can go higher or farther, but it also means the rocket is less stable in flight. This tradeoff has to be considered in the design of the rocket.
