Maybe give some free advice about: School?
He said it while he hung on the cross.
Tell us though. You must be writing this for a theology/religion class. So shouldn't you be able to answer this from your heart? I understand the time issue, but every Christian should know this, embedded in their hearts. You take it your own way, and I will say what it means to me.
He said those words as he hung dying on the cross. Everyone at the Golgotha was mocking him, jeering insults at him as he hung there, making a laughing stock of him as he hung dying. They didn't understand or know what was going to happen or what the final plan was. They just saw Jesus as another would be faker, a blasphemer who was getting what he deserved, death.
But they didn't understand it had to be that way. Christ died for our sins by hanging on that cross for almost 6 hours. 6 long hours with 3 nails in your body, suspended between heaven and earth to a cross.
He asked God, his father, to forgive them their sins, because they did not understand that it had to be that way. That Jesus had to die being mocked and hung from one of mankinds worst ways of execution, the cross. All so we could go up to heaven when we die, and not suffer in hell.
To me, that is exactly what it means. The entire subject can go alot deeper than that. But to me that is what it means.

Try breaking down something like this into subheadings and then writing a short amount on each.
* Analyse the quote itself.
* 'Father' as God.
* Forgiveness, forgive who for what?
* 'Know not what they do' What are they doing, why don't they know it?
* Then analyse the meaning of the whole as you have revealed it, if you still need more.
