Answer:

A group of parents were supervising the children.

Explanation:

If you want to change a passive-voice sentence to active voice, find the agent in a "by the" phrase, or consider carefully who or what is performing the action expressed in the verb. Make that agent the subject of the sentence, and change the verb accordingly.

For example

The car was driven by Paul's mother

Ask the by who/wat question. This identifies Paul's mother as the object of the sentence

The subject is "The car"

The verb is "was driven"

The object of the sentence is "Paul's mother"

Switch the  object and the subject, adjusting the verb accordingly.

The active voice becomes Paul's mother drove the car

Paul's mother becomes the subject and drove becomes the verb

In the sentence

The children were being supervised by a group of parents​

Subject: "The children"

Verb: "were being supervised"

Object: "a group of parents"   (answer to by who? question)

So the active voice is

A group of parents were supervising the children
