It means the Earth moves around the Sun. It moves around the Sun on an orbit (path) in the shape of an elipse.

What does it mean for a planet to revolve around the sun?

That it orbits the Sun as a result of gravity. A year is the time it takes for a planet to orbit the sun, what we know as a 'year' is merely an Earth year which is the time it takes for the Earth to orbit the Sun. For instance, a Saturn year is the time it takes Saturn to orbit the sun.
