Mary Anne Buckley is a 2nd grade teacher at Victor Primary School in Victor, New York, and the author of Sharing the Blue Crayon: How to Integrate Social, Emotional, and Literacy Learning. Her book was published by Stenhouse in 2015 and is described as a resource for integrating social-emotional learning with literacy instruction in K–3 classrooms.

Buckley’s work centers on a Friendship Workshop approach that helps children identify and regulate emotions, build empathy and trust, and support both relationships and learning.
