I guess you are saying an ILS, a LOC (timed approach?) and a VOR. That would meet the requirements.

The way I teach holding entries is to break the Heading Indicator into a three segment pie shape. Parallel is the 110 degrees of arc on the left side of the HI. Teardrop is 70 degrees of arc on the right side. And direct is 180 degrees on the bottom half. Then, take the holding radial and impose it on the HI. Which segment of the HI the holding radial falls into will be your entry type. That probably makes no sense, but it's hard to explain in words. This method is commonly explained in the IFR training manuals.

As far as approach plates, just start looking at the different types and as you find symbols you don't know, look them up. There should be an explaination of the symbols in the front of the jepp manual.
