Melting different degrees (2%, 5%, 30%) of a rock with a mantle-like composition generates magma of different Al, Si contents. Continents grow at their edges by partial melting of oceanic crust that is being subducted, generating magmas of a somewhat more Si, Al-rich composition than the subducting slab itself.
