They make circle like shapes except one part of this circle is closer and one part is farther. But before 2009, pluto would go in an oval like pattern and even get closer to the Sun than Neptune at some times.

The planets orbit (travel) around the Sun.
The planets travel around the sun in elliptical orbits due to the sun's gravitational pull. This movement is known as the heliocentric model, with the sun at the center of the solar system, contrary to the geocentric model where the Earth was believed to be at the center.
Planets orbit the sun.
They rotate. Travel around the sun is called revolving.
Planets travel around the Sun in elliptical orbits due to the gravitational pull of the Sun. This gravitational force keeps the planets in their respective paths, causing them to move in a continuous loop around the Sun. The speed at which a planet travels around the Sun depends on its distance from the Sun and the mass of the Sun.
the gravitational pull of the sun is making the planets orbit it.

Planets closer to the sun travel faster around it due to the stronger gravitational pull from the sun. This is described by Kepler's laws of planetary motion, where planets closer to the sun have shorter orbital periods.
