A separate thread isn't necessary and can be tricky to get working.
Presumably you want to update the LCD periodically, if that is the case, I'd recommend using tkinter's "after" method to schedule a function to run after a specified delay. At the end of the function, it then calls to schedule itself to run again after another delay.
For many tkinter applications this does the job perfectly and separate threads aren't needed (and are frankly a PITA).
