Someone (you or a pool) generates a block and a partial header for that block.  That partial header is sent to your mining system.  The miner completes the header by hashing the initial part of it.  If the result of that hashing is low enough, it gets sent back up the chain and becomes either a share in your pool, or a block in the chain.
