I want to coat iron oxide nanoparticles methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane ...can any one suggest any simple and effective method?

The technique used here should work well. It was with a RAFT agent which had a triethoxysilane group, so quite similar to what you want to do.
Alternatively, you can use a much simpler method:

They have performed the reaction with tin oxide nanoparticles, and it should also work quiet well with your magnetite nanoparticles.
What I have done with another type of silane was that I mixed the iron oxide nanoparticles into it and then stirred it mechanically overnight. I used FTIR to verify, you can also use TGA.
i suggest you try what we did in this paper due the presence of silane group in your sample.
