This is a big question. I'll take the first sound:
It's usually 'sh'
short
wash
In words of French origin it can be 'ch'
machine
charade
It can also be 't' followed by 'io'
nation
cautious
It's also the sound of 'ss' in the middle of a word, followed by 'io'
transmission
passion
or 'c' followed by 'io'
precious
Those are the most usual ways that /ʃ/ are spelt.
I'll let someone else deal with the other sounds.

/ʃ/ (sh) as in ship; /ʒ/ (zh) as in measure; /ʤ/ as in judge,; job; just; /tʃ/ (ch) as in church.

I can see that you're not getting many answers for the other sounds, so here are some more:
/ʒ/ leisure, massage
/ʤ/ jump, general
/tʃ/ child, match
