You should get it all by installing gnome. Run this in the terminal:

sudo apt-get install gnome

This should install Gnome 3, Gnome Classic/Fallback, and Gnome Classic (No effects).

If the problem is that the option to chose desktop environment is not yet present, I assume you have turned automatic login on. Turn this off. There is a tutorial here.
